Anon is stuck in a rut

It surely gets better if you can make the necessary changes to your life to improve this.
I never hear anyone talk like this who doesn't live in the suburbs with a huge commute. I live in a city and can get to work in 15 minutes without a car.
My schedule is:
- 6:00am: Wake up, shower, eat breakfast, get dressed.
- 6:45am: Leave for work.
- 7:00am: Arrive at work.
- 12:00pm: Lunch hour.
- 4:00pm: Leave work.
- 4:15pm: Arrive home and unwind.
- 5:00pm: Workout.
- 5:30pm: Prepare Dinner.
- 6:15pm: Eat Dinner.
- 6:45: Clean up kitchen and other parts of home.
- 7:00pm: Movies, Video Games, Social Time, Sex Time.
- 10:00pm: Go to bed
That gives me a full 6 hours between finishing work and going to bed. If I choose an easy dinner, I hardly have to do anything less than fun after work, and I work in a cool part of town so I don't actually have to go commute anywhere. I can be drinking at a bar within 5 minutes of clocking out, and I don't have to drive home. Any other errands I make in a week are within walking distance of my home or work.
Before I moved, my schedule was:
- 5:45am: Wake up, shower, eat breakfast, get dressed.
- 6:30am: Leave for work.
- 8:00am: Arrive at work.
- 12:00pm: Lunch hour.
- 5:00pm: Leave work.
- 6:30pm: Arrive home and unwind.
- 7:00pm: Prepare Dinner.
- 7:45pm: Eat Dinner.
- 8:15pm: Clean up kitchen and other parts of home.
- 8:30pm: Movies, Video Games, Social Time, Sex Time.
- 9:45pm: Go to bed
So that gave me an entire 3.25 hours after getting home, giving me no time to fit a workout in without giving up other leisure activities. This doesn't even factor in that everywhere else I needed to run errands was a 15-30 minute drive away.
