I use my free time to work on a great many projects and hobbies and to enjoy life through a vast number of "time-wasting" activities. Often I go on a hiatus of sorts from one of more of the following listed activites, but I eventually come back 'round to it in good time, even if "good time" is several months or even years.
Again in no particular order, here is a list of the things I might be doing at any given point in the day when my attention is not fully on feeding, grooming, or resting my body:

Planning stories to write
Writing
Rock collecting
LP (Vinyl records) collecting
Amateur astronomy

Pencil and ink sketching
Creating "a new language"
