Life is busy. Really? Tell me something I don't know.
Okay, I'll do that little thing right now, or maybe I'll do one better and give you some choices. Take a look at this item from The Skinny Artist. It will make you think and if nothing else will make you smile. High School was a time of misery for a lot of us and we did seem to know everything about everything. Now that you know better maybe this will remind you of what you missed.

Everyone has a website or a Twitter account or a facebook page. Ever wonder if it was doing you a bit of good? Just having a tool doesn't mean it will work for you. Owning a Nikon doesn't make you a photographer, it makes you a Nikon owner. Do you want to be a wedsite owner or do you want all of the work and sweat and tears (If you haven't shed bitter tears over building a wed site, you haven't known the meaning of the Blues.) you poured into building your site to do something? Take a look at this item from Shutterbug and see if you are doing it right.

Take a look around the bay area, there's a music event on every corner. And why aren't you there? Yes, painters can find as varied and challenging subjects as photographers can and maybe you have that unique vision like Leroy Neiman and can turn your images into the sort of thing that catches the eye of the Big Bunny himself, Hugh Hefner! Not interested in Hef's opinion? Sad, he has a national magazine bought by the young and shamefully wealthy and they unlike their pickup truck loving, jean wearing brothers buy art. I thought that might catch your attention. Have a look at this article and see if it doesn't give you and idea or two about what to do with your spare time.
