What to do during area transitions

I'm wondering how people use the time while game loads between areas.
Usually it give player between 15 seconds and few minutes.
What I did during that time so far?
1. Made tea
2. Chatted with relatives
3. Setupped something in alt-tab
4. Browsed web
Now I'm going to do quests, and that mean a lot of transitions.
Going to try to watch some movie or anime, or play another game in between.
Or read book.
What do you do when it happens?

I rarely experience more then a few seconds between transitions.
Though on the rare occasions I try to read the text blurbs. Also giggle at how when I enter some areas the pictures and name are just hilarious pairing.

It's almost ~ a minute or more lately.
The temptation to walk away or do something else is definitely rising

I do a few things:
• look at Facebook
• watch hilarious cat videos
• play a silly tablet game called Bejeweled Stars
• check my Clash of Clans base
• goof off on IRC
• harass my cats
• harass YourMoveHolyMan
• harass people in the CK Skype chat
I know how to keep myself entertained!

- Vaguely watch TV
• harass my cats
- Or get harassed by my cats. I'm not trampoline!
- Come up with new "Fun facts" for Kehl's examine
- Wonder how many man points are lost by bring up his cats
- Stretching, lots of stretching
- Or stressing out when the area transition picture is the fugue, and I'm wondering if the long load time killed me

Wine.
Then wine.
Followed by more wine.
Then a nap.
Then Wine.
Alternate between red and white.

Tending to the needs of my flesh prison and it's modernisation of the primitive cave-dwelling to which I am content to slowly wither away within.

Sometimes I pet my cat ^^

my favorite thing to do is walk away "real quick" to grab something to eat or something similar and come back to my PC in the fugue, because i didnt understand the importance of not doing that upon entering the giant hills with my level 17.
