How to stay busy in jail?

Hey guys, so basically the title says it all. What can I do to stay busy in jail? I'm looking at a small amount of time in county (7 months) and i'm afraid of going batshit crazy in there.
I've only ever been to jail once, and it was for 2 months. I know the obvious ones, like reading, writing, and playing cards, but what are some other things I could do in there to keep busy? Thanks in advance.

Totally did this exact thing last time I was there! It was a good time for about 3 days, then one of the deputies decided that we weren't allowed to do it anymore.

I won't be going until mid December because the judge was nice enough to let me finish up this semester of school. I'm trying to stay relatively sober until I go. However, I am planning on taking one last acid journey before then. And I do a lot of writing in my free time, so i'm sure i'll crank out some short stories when i'm there.

I would offer to write to you, but I'm currently writing to another Shroomerite who is in jail for the next 6 months, and it'd be kinda difficult to keep up with two.
....maybe.

Start saving money to take with you to buy commissary, a lot of times you can buy stuff like radios and other shit to kill time, also buy shit to trade and gamble with.
You can spend like an hour a day working out.
And I know you already said it but cards are a good way to waste some time.
Also board games are good time killers.
And I know you already said this, but reading. That's the way I spent most of my jail time, just really try to immerse yourself into the book, its a good way to try and forget you're locked up. A lot of time the library doesn't have too many good books in it, some jails let you buy books from amazon while you're there, and a lot of time other people in jail have books they'll lend you, or they can reccomend good books that are in the library.
Also try to take some drugs in with you, the jail I went to didn't do cavity searches or anything, you can either swallow them in something and throw up when you get to your cell, or shit it out and get it, or you can shove it in your ass and get it out once you get settled.
But be careful you don't get caught bringing them in or having them, I'm pretty sure it's a felony. You should be good as long as you tell no one you have them, even if they seem cool seriously tell no one.

Sheekle would annoy everyone in jail. They would let him out early to save their sanity.

I have a bunch of good people who will write me. 
But there's always room for one more. If you change your mind, let me know.

I think I'd actually try and keep to myself unless I had a reason to think anyone in there was quality enough to be worth having extensive interactions with

I am an avid reader, and the jail in my county allows visitors to bring paperbacks for you to read. About sneaking the drugs in, there is no cavity search at this jail either, and last time I was in jail I was high on Diluadid almost the whole time 
I'm looking forward to some time away from drugs, as crazy as that may sound. Plus it's not worth the risk of a felony to me

Wow this thread actually made jail sound kind of exciting. If i could dedicate my days to drawing, meditating, reading, spending time with myself while someone else pays for me to live...
