I just placed a fairly sizable order through Gorilla Tactics for a bunch of space marine stuff for me, and some necron stuff for my roommate (roughly $300 USD before shipping). It isn't going to ship out until thursday, which actually suits me fine, because I need some more supplies and glues before I can really start assembling things, but then, I'm waiting for Miniwargaming.com's big re-opening sale (I really need the brushes).
So. I have several weeks to wait. How would you advise I help the time go by faster Dakka?
Edit: I already tried painting my clocks red. I guess I'm just not orky enough to make that work.

If you've got something else to paint, you could do that and then watch it dry.

Video games, lifes great time killer, whilst i wait for my washes or inks to dry on models i have a quick game of Pro Evo or Fifa by the time i have finished marching both of the teams i manage to another win the inks are dry, prehaps you could get into an involving RPG (Fallout 3, Oblivion, Mass Effect, Fable 2, Final Fantasy (any of em), Neverwinter Nights, Baldurs Gate etc etc (those are just a few i own  )) that should kill some time surely?

The loop the loop outside the window and the draft from the chimney seem to be the key.
You feel such a failure if you fail to get it out the window.

So I tried desktop defense, because I'm an oldschool WC3 tower defense junkie. I can tell I'm going to drop a good amount of time in to that game. Other than that, I'm mostly playing DotA on WC3. I consulted my roommate, and he's loaned my Lost Odyssey, so I have that to supplement my new Collector's Edition Fallout 3, and replaying Disgaea, this time on the PSP edition. Also, for anyone who's ever played it, I'm restarting my Monster Hunter Portable 2G account. For those who have played, the KNOW that'll devour time.
I think I can make it. I mean... excluding things like classes... trying not to piss off the girlfriend... remembering to eat... stuff like that.
