I suspect that as with many guys, retirement does not agree with you.
As I understand it, you kept active until recently with your bestbuys activities: not as stimulating as when you were a reporter perhaps but you made money and were still active in the game.
While I am not really sure about it, it's my impression that since moving to Sin City your bestbuys activity has either ended or been severely diminished, due to forces beyond your control such as changes in media and marketing, IIRC.
So now you're bored in part at least because you're no longer filling a chunk of your time with work.
Understandable, and for most of us guys unavoidable.
