Share your practice routine or give me suggestions for mine

For quite awhile now my practice routine has consisted mostly of working on the following areas.

1) Developing single stroke, mostly by working on the stone killer from master studies with my hands and a feet. I really like doing this, its almost a meditation type relaxing thing for me to do.

2) A bit of "stick control"

3) A bit of "encyclopedia of double bass drumming".

3) Side A of Moving Pictures using the Bill Wheeler transcriptions. I have to admit this is taking up the lion's share of my practice time, I am just having such a good time with it.

4) A little (very little) just messing around on the kit.

I would like to hear what you guys/gals are doing. I feel like I am becoming a bit of a one (or two trick pony) by just working mostly on single stroke and Rush songs.

If I wanted to become more well rounded, what would you suggest? My available practice time ranges from a low of 30 minutes to 1 hour a day,(during the week) to 3 or 4 hours. (these days are rare, tend to happen on the weekends.)
