I make food for either tommorow or tonight depending on the circumstances. Im on the Fatman, so i get 1000+ all the time, which gives me enough time to do stuff like go grocery shopping as well. Its actualy quite nice, except for days like today where I work overtime. I get home at 7, log in right away, and dont get into the game till 9. considering I wake up for work at 5:45, I dont spend alot of time in game. The good news is that I only have to work during winter break.
O, and when all else fails, head to youtube and six degrees of su-su-sudio for an hourEinstien trolled Newton so hard with general relativity

I like to login then go and do the following normally:
Change out of work clothes, make dinner, load up league and play a game, look at EQDaily while I wait for everyone in the match to load. After that match go and back to EQD and watch/listen to content linked there and then play TOR. Also halfway in there my gf puts something good on the TV while she waits. So all in all it gives me time to wind down some before I start playing. Also I play on Warriors of the Shadow.

Actually did my laundry instead of being unhygenic and wear the same pair of underwear in rotations. Being able to do some chores instead of being a nerd and going to the pc to play games all night after getting home.

I come home, log on, get in queue. Then I do my normal "just got home" routine. Or I check my regular websites and such. Or I log on WoW, and do a daily or two (cooking and fishing usually), and a few other things. I run dual monitor though, so it's easy for me.

Luckily my server doesn't seem too heavily afflicted with queues, but it gets them every so often. When it happens I generally fire up WoW and chat to my guildies: unfortunately not too many of them have come over to SWTOR, or were waiting for the official launch and now find they can't buy it anywhere.
The other options are to go spend some time with my girlfriend, or play Angry Birds on my iPhone.

If I'm queuing as a tank for instances, sit and wait for 2 seconds. If I'm queuing as tank for LFR read threads or troll trade. If I wanna blow 8min and watch some thing funny, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6hPU9Ru1ftw
