Like that will be hard.
1. I can has cheeseburger/lolcats. I used to waste a lot of time there catching up on the old ones but now it's just every few days for a few minutes.
2. Cakewrecks. Ditto that.
3. Research about Sunday's readings when I have to do children's liturgy of the word. Seriously.
4. Learning way way too much about ___________ (pumpkin carving, saltwater fish, dyslexia, Robert Earl Keen, the TV show "Soap", native Missouri trees, and so forth)
5. watching stuff on hulu or netflix
6. Reading blogs of folks I don't know "in real life" but now know better (at least know their personae better) than I know many people I do know in real life.
7. Looking up words like "persona: plural?" on google. Some of my latest define: searches include anagnorisis, bogan, inordinate, maird, in media res, petard, sandwich board---all words that I thought I knew but really, I just needed to be sure before I used them too much more.
8. Planning our next vacation
9. Reading tabs that Mike leaves up for me. Recently, a meatloaf shaped like a human hand. Sometimes they are really cool links--like color photographs from turn of the century Russia, or a cartoon from xkcd. Other times, well, they are meatloafs shaped like human hands.
10. Finding a house for my sister!!

I've never made one before.
It's Mardi Gras, at least for a little while longer, and I lived in
Houston, which is close enough to East Texas and Louisiana ...

As you say in your "about me" blurb, you like to learn.
Oy, Bridgett! #6 is definitely not "wasting time." It's investing in friendships and our old age (remember the commune?).
Likewise, #8 and #10 are appropriate uses of the internet.
The rest ... well ... they qualify, but must be fun!
oh yeah. I reading this instead of doing my theology reading. (which is boring as hell. Why couldn't we have been assigned a text written by a woman?)
ummmm...link to hand meatloaf?
These all sound like good uses of your time, except perhaps #2. And maybe #1, except I have no idea what it refers to.
Most of those are not wastes of time. I'm not even going to begin to list how I waste my time with technology.
