What do you do while you wait for others?

I just thought about this. So what do you do when you come to the chatrooms a couple hours before anything happens? Me, I just start playing video games or turn on the TV.

A couple hours? Never happened to me. But I usually wait around a before the sims, basically the same thing. So I play Super Nintendo...

I play music with Windows Media Player and hit those audiocon thingies in with the music. Its fricken hilarious when you put a gong in something like heavy metal or a "shudup Whesley" in Clasical music.

:D

I usually just stare at an empty chat room for a couple hours.

I play cards. Solitaire, freecell, Spider, poker, whatever. Or, if there's anyone else waiting around, I try to get a conversation going. (though sometimes it seems more like I'm talking to myself, so that doesn't happen often)

Early for a sim? I take out the marlboros and decide on a playlist to listen to.

If I'm early I usually play minesweeper, listen to music and eat chocolate. Sometimes I also check the news and weather forecast for my region and then get depressive :lol:.

If I get on and nobody is on with me, I just tend to leave and do other stuff...

Heh.. while I don't wait around the chatroom for my sims to start, I simply check my e-mails, listen to music or watch my Top Gear or anime videos. :lol: ... Power!

I never show up a few hours early, but if it is pretty early I'll open a new window and look around the Internet at stuff, AIM, and sometimes talk with others who happen to be in the room as well. Though usually, I get engrossed in the Internet stuff and forget I'm in the chat room, and sometimes people talk to me and I don't realize.

 

So, apologies in advance folks! Now you know the real reasons for my periods of silence.

i'm always 30 minutes early before a sim and there is always someone there for me to talk to.

When I am early for a game, as I am tonight, I look about the boards and catch up on those messages and stories I have missed over the past week. When I get to game time, I am usually quilting.

"The trouble with being punctual is that nobody's there to appreciate it."

Isn't that sort of in the same vein as "Youth is wasted on the young."?

I have my Eastern Time/GMT clock running in the background a couple of hours before the sims, so I know what time it is over the pond :lol:

 

Then I move onto MSN and see who's still awake lol
