All too true. I'm the same way, I need a goal, some sort of project to motivate me. Currently, mainemenu.com is my pet project. I started it as a project to learn some php, but I got my fill of that pretty quickly and am converting over to perl now. So far I've figured out the goodness of HTML::Template and I'm beginning to get a handle on Class::DBI.
Perhaps you could apply some of useful tidbits from this thread to your post. Especially since, as of this writing, the vote is 5/54/0 in favor of moving it to a more permanent section of the monastary.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
