Actually, it sounds more restrictive than a full-time job, in the sense that most jobs involve a significant amount of social contact, and most decent ones also involve some degree of ongoing exposure to new ideas, too, so there's a significant chance that you'll be exposed to something you find interesting enough to get involved with on your own time, and your situation doesn't involve either of those, and interferes with your ability to pursue such things on your own time.
On most days, I go to her house around 5:PM or so, take her out to eat, take her back home, and sit on her sofa playing my Nintendo DS or something until I send her to bed and go home (usually around 10:30 or so). My parents set up an Internet connection there, so I can go online if I want; it's not much different from simply staying in my own house doing what I normally do. As for social contact, well, you're probably right about that. I am on a first-name basis with some of the staff at my local IHOP, though. ;)
