Do you spend more time at home or more time outside your home? Whichever the answer is, would you change the ratio if you could?

Do you spend more time at home or more time outside your home? Whichever the answer is, would you change the ratio if you could?
Home.
I want to engineer my life so I only ever leave it to go biking somewhere.
Right now I'm working 70 hour weeks and enjoying the hell out of myself, and sleeping the rest of the time. I guess I'm at a 50/50 split.
I'd like to keep that split but work in time to paint my warhammer minis (home) and more time in LA (away).
12 on 12 off, so I spend about an hour more out of my room. Unless I decide to lift, then it's like 16 hours a day outside my room. I say room because, well, I have no house anyway.
I'd rather not leave unless I'm going to do something fun. I want that ratio to be like 18 to 6 at the house.
Home. I rather enjoy being at home, although I'd happily change the location of it. I like to have alot of quiet time... and I'd probably change that my boyfriend could be home more often (to a certain degree) if he desired it.
I spend most of my time at home. Although I love going out, shopping, clubbing, cinema etc, nothing beats cuddling up at home on the sofa with my bf and my dogs!
outside world.
but the outside world does not have links to the greater outside world and phonecalls to my girlfriend get fucking expensive
Home, mostly because it's too cold to go outside and I'm pretty anti-social. I would like to get out more but the social anxiety kinda ruins that :(
Home. And work. Sometimes I get the two confused. If I had more money I'd definitely go out more but that's not likely to happen anytime soon. There's not a whole lot to do if you don't have cash.
work and traffic take a lot out of the day, but other then that I like to spend it at home.........................my god, I'm becoming domesticated....................mooooo
Home, home, home. Though I do go out there for class (1 - 3 hours) , work (0 - 7 hours) and food (1 hour). :D
If you are homeless the outside world is your home.
Home for right now. When I get done with school, I won't be home at all.
I hear ya!Quote:

a fair mix of home and work. I go out sometimes, but I don't always like being social. not from anxiety, but because the nature of my job is to talk and be nice to people(strangers), and sometimes I just don't have the patience to do it for free. I hate bars with music that's so loud you have to shout over it. if I wanted to shout over loud music, I'd go to work....... but yeah, I have my favorite watering holes around town.

I'm so bad that if I happen to see my customers outside of my job, I keep my head down and walk right by them like I don't see them, just so I don't have to talk shop with them.
My time is my time.
that is exactly how I feel, and I am sometimes very selfish with my time. I'm also not opposed to telling someone (politely the first time) that I don't feel like talking to them.Quote:
