9 to 5er looking to improve : Beginner's Place

Can anyone share some thoughts on how to improve when you have a regular day job? I find it tough to make enough time to balance playing and studying the game when I only have a few hours each night for poker. My usual routine is to play for an hour or two when I get home, then do some reading (HOC right now) before I go to bed. Can anyone tell how they improved their game while working a regular job?
