I am bored at home?
I am a 31 year old guy and live by myself. I am bored during the week nights. I hang out with my friends on the weekends. My girlfriend lives in another town so I don't see her much but on the weekends as well. What are some things that I can do during the week nights that don't cost much besides watching tv or playing my guitar?

1. Yahoo Answers
2. Volunteer
3. Drop by local hospitals and read aloud to sick kids. Give parents a chance to dash home and take a shower.
4. Journal
5. Start a small business, a little at a time, such as a website for displaying and selling art created by children
6. Study math/learn another language/take a night course
7. Play poker/host a game and buffet at your place
8. Draw/paint simple pictures to give to kids. Kids give their pictures away but adults never give kids drawings, and kids LOVE it.
9. Write simple cheerful notes to elderly people. Write about 50 and drop them off at a nursing home. They'll be distributed to people who haven't had a letter in ten years.
10. Play around with the microwave oven. Make the infamous "pickle glow" http://margo.student.utwente.nl/el/microwave/

Here's a few activities I do, low cost to- none.....probably pretty lame to some, but I can fill in the time with it, and it's better than being introverted.
You could always read, I enjoy that!
Go fishing
Get a pet, walk the dog, or set up an aquarium, (over time)
Play Yahoo answers, games online
Email friends, family that you havent' talked to in awhile
Go meet your neighbors
Check out any free musuems, exhibits (read paper for events), those are ALWAYS prevalent
Sounds like you need a hobby and I don't know what you like,, but try and do some hobbies, sports, take a class online, donate your time to a charity. Makes you well rounded, selfless, passes the time, as well as helping others.....

Video games. Since you're an adult, nothing is better than a Playstation 2 for you. Try fighting games (preferrably the superior ones) like Tekken 5 and Virtua Fighter 4: Evolution. Or racing games, like Need for Speed: Most Wanted, or other games you like. Since you obviously have a PC, you might want to try PC games. Try Quake 3 and the Half-Life series for shooters, Warcraft 3 for real-time strategy.

Take a night class, join a bowling team, go to a gym.
Go to a book store, where they have a coffee shop.
Lots of people go there and look at magazines , bring
their laptops , visit with all the others.

Buy an old school nintendo. You can get them pretty cheap and playing the games that we played when we were kids is always fun. You can get the games usually for a dollar or two at a used game store.
