Has to be inexpensive/free
and no thanks on a self portrait...

That can be inexpensive, just gotta chop all that wood yourself, which will take a long time. Plus  you have a house. So triple win

ehh i guess

- Download GIMP (open source equivalent of Photoshop though not as many features it's still good) and start graphic design or create funny .gifs
- Download NetBeans IDE and teach yourself Java, C/C++, etc and create some small games or apps
- Talk to your local congressman. I've actually done this before when I was bored and got a meeting. It's actually not that hard to do.
- Install a UNIX/Linux OS on your computer. The amount of knowledge you will gain by just setting everything up is priceless. I have completely switched to Ubuntu. I stopped using Windows a couple months ago.
- Check out all the open source software. A whole bunch of free stuff that should keep you occupied.

I'm an engineer if that matters...

you could teach yourself how to play an instrument over youtube videos. Like guitar or ukulele
you can find both for pretty cheap.

I think the information is pretty valuable, so I have a couple books on how to negotiate with people or how to try and persuade others while still keeping their confidence. I believe you can go far if you know how to talk to people.

@SneakerReaper all that sounds really fun, will definetely keep those in mind.

@kc24688 thats not a bad idea for later but thats not really a "project" in my mind... it can be if I apply the reading to my everyday life and document it I guess. Other than that it just sounds like a good read.

@manny1 thats more along the lines of something I wanna do. Something creative. Maybe not totally "taking up" photograhy but something along those lines!

Thanks a lot everyone!
Still haven't decided on anything yet btw!
