I just posted a question about what everyone's ideal day or dream vacation would be like. But what is your actual daily life like? How much time do you spend on your special interests vs time at work/school vs other activities and sleeping? Do you spend a lot of time with people or are you alone most of the time Do you usually have a structured schedule or a crazy hectic day? Sorry for all the questions, but I am curious. And annoyingly nosy :D

My daily life is usually scheduled around my favourite chair. The location of the chair varies from time to time, depending on what desk or counter or table or bookcase is the most relevant too my current interest. Work happens. Social events (limited) and chores (minimized) happen. Phone interrupts. Landlord comes to the building and I quietly pretend I'm not there, which interrupts me too. And sometimes I do laundry or check to see if I have any interesting spam in my email.

And when I need a break there is WP.

I spend the day at my clubhouse, socializing. When I don't do that, I go on WP and YouTube at home. I go out with my friends in the evening, every second night. On the nights that I stay home, I go on WP and listen to my Kinks CDs or LPs. My ideal day, would be a day in London, with my favourite Kink.

My ideal vacation would be one in which I could stay in a cabin, by the forest, where all was quiet (except for the normal sounds of the forest, and of fire in the chimney), where all I had to do was look at the forest, at water running, and the gentle falling of the snow.
About homework vs. interests, sometimes, I tend to forget my homework, or, will do it until before we're supposed to turn off the lights, because I spent the whole afternoon in my interests. Interests vs. sleep: Sometimes I tend to stay up until 1 or 2 a.m. on my interests, and if I have insomnia, then, I'll use that time on my interests.
I tend to be alone most of hte time, and I have a schedule for everything in my day, except when it comes to my interests. :P
My ideal day would be one, in which I owned a cabin by the forest, near a river, where I could spend my time, looking at the forest and the river, same as my ideal vacation. When I get enough money, I plan to buy a cabin near the woods, and live there for the rest of my life, never leaving it unless necessary, and I plan to have 1 black horse, a dog, and I'll work as a vet.
