Hobby Time?

per_soloOk...so, the lack of job thing is starting to get to me...ya know, when I was 21, this would have seemed to be the greatest of all blessings...of course, I was still living at home then.
I'm starting to snap at people, be somewhat more agressive...easily irritable...all of which sounds like just normal "Not feeling well" things, but when I analyze (or overanalyze, you decide), the lack of job is driving me nuts.
Time off is good...and, I keep trapping myself...I'll look at my Apartment and go "Oh, I should clean up some...", but then I decide I should REALLY be spending that time checking mail...examining Careerbuilder, or Monster..in case a job came up that I managed to miss.
The comment made by the closest of friends is that at this point, I need a hobby.
Hobby used to be collecting Comics, collecting movies, shit like that. More recently, it's been closer to "Video Editing", but there have to be shows on that I give a damn about in order to get that, and Limited Basic Cable just doesn't have it..hell, I was actually looking forward to recording the old "X-Men" cartoon, and the day after I recorded an episode, Fox Family no longer ran it, and it's now on Toon Disney. :-P
Something about luck, I'm guessing.
So, suggestions or recommendations for cheap hobbies? I could read many of the books I own that I've never gotten around to...or, I could clean the apt., then start going through a mass purge of pitching crap that's been in totes since 2 moves ago.
I'm debating whether I should take a nap...
I understand those of you working folk have a hard time seeing it, but dear god, the loss of the day to day is maddening..
