For me its all about sitting down and letting all the build up of tension and stress from my workday melt away, and giving in to my interests.

Spending time with my wife, indulging my obsessions with my computer game, books and hobbies, and when I get a chance to be alone, partaking of some herbal relief and tending my garden :). Also, a new added "interest/obsession" is connecting with the wrong planet community, perusing posts, and realizing wow I never knew there were other people who thought like I do out there.

Work is so draining, and I use my time after hours to be the "real" me, and I try not to limit my obsession/interests outside of the confines of work (within reason, family first ;) )

I get online unless my son gets to the computer before I do. Otherwise I turn on the news and then fall asleep on the sofa.

I like to play a bit of guitar, noodling mindlessly usually, while I read or watch videos on the net. Preferably my girlfriend also gives me a back massage

I indulge my current obsession.

If I don't have an obsession, I'll browse the web, watch a DVD, or read.

Have lunch while watching a DVD (The Simpsons :D) or reading the newspaper, internet, drawing & colouring, video games (currently Starcraft II), reading a book, guitar, sleeping (I never get enough from the night before so I try to make it up). This is basically my entire life outside of college as well :).

I don't have any work/school at the moment, but in the past I'd read, play videogames, and do creative stuff related to roleplaying games.

Usually put a DVD on, some TV show I'm watching, usually. I like to tune-out with the fantasy. That or organic herb gardening - one of my interests. I have a big herb patch in the yard and I like pottering about up there.
