FEEA filed in Goo

I invented a new system for evaluating pastimes and distractions today, called FEEA (pronounced "fear", but with a soul-piercing screech).

The letters stand for Fun, Edification, Ease and Availability. What you do is rate all the things that you could do out of five, tally the four scores up, and the winner is the one with the most points. Here's what I found.

Playing Computer Games

Fun: 4
Edification: 2 (there's always that feeling that you haven't really achieved anything)
Ease: 5 (can be done whilst drunk, that's how easy it is)
Availability: 4 (waiting for it to load)

TOTAL: 15 (a most respectable score)

Making Music

Fun: 2 (a temporary state of affairs, I'm sure)
Edification: 4
Ease: 2 (takes a lot of hard work and dedication)
Availability: 2 (bandmates won't come out of London at the drop of a hat, you know)

TOTAL: 10 (shocking. Must do something about this)

Going To The Gym

Fun: 1 (I get bored of looking at the same sweaty people and the same white walls over and over again)
Edification: 5 (...but I do feel better about myself for it)
Ease: 2 (takes a lot of hard work and dedication)
Availability: 5 (it's part of the routine. Availability is not a problem)

TOTAL: 13 (blame it on the edification score)

Housework

Fun: 2 (varies depending on the task)
Edification: 4
Ease: 5 (can be done whilst drunk, that's how easy it is)
Availability: 5 (assuming you're actually at home)

TOTAL: 16 (wow. I should do more housework)

Blogging

Fun: 3 (it would be 5, but I have ensured that the score takes into account "reading other peoples' blogs". I joke, of course)
Edification: 2 (it would be 5, but I have ensured that the score takes into account "reading other peoples' blogs". I joke, of course)
Ease: 4 (type nonsense. Not exactly rocket science)
Availability: 2 (not enough hours in the evening)

TOTAL: 11 (second to last place. Not going to do that again then)

So, with that, I hereby announce my resignation from blogging.

I joke, of course.
