[Stratrat]

I don't manage to get in a "structured" practice every single day (should probably spend less time posting and more time practicing!) - but I do pick up the guitar and at least play something every day - even if it's only for 5 or 10 minutes.

When I do have the time to sit down and actually practice, I normally warm up by going through some chords and doing some picking exercises up and down the fretboard. Once I'm warmed up, I have a "setlist" of about 10 songs that my drummer and I are working on - I crank up iTunes on my computer and play along with every song on the list in its entirety at least once, then go back and work on whichever one is the newest to me, or needs the most work. If I have time left after that, I'll work on whatever strikes my fancy - hybrid picking, chord progressions, something out of one of my lesson books/DVD's, etc. No matter what, I try to incorporate something new or something that is a "weak spot" every time I practice, to keep it fresh and keep improving/diversifying.
