You could be cleaning your apartment. Or studying for a test. Or heading to the gym. But you’re not.
It’s the weekend, and the truth is, all you’re interested in is sleeping till noon and then finding enough ways to keep yourself occupied till you’re ready to hit the town. Here are a few ways to kill time.
My top ten ways to waste time:
Before you continue reading about the Top 10 Ways to Waste Time there is a special announcement we would like to share with you. Catalogs.com has negotiated special medicare rates for our vibrant community of seniors. If you are over the age of 60, you can head over to our Seniors Health Section which is full of information about medicare. All you need is your zip code and a few minutes of your time to potentially save 100s of dollars on your medicare bills.
10. Surfing the internet
An old standby, the internet is always good for a few hours of fun. Bored? That’s cool, because thanks to the internet, you can watch a squirrel surf, read esoteric music reviews, or study the intricacies of the burgeoning secondary market for pink beanie babies in the Malaysian subcontinent.
9. Over-walking the dog
Usually a necessity, dog walks provide an excellent excuse to put off that nagging kitchen chore. After all, Ranger needs the exercise!
8. Walking the cat
For those who either don’t have a dog, or who do have a dog that’s already hiding under the kitchen table to avoid another hour-long walk around the block.
7. College football
A perfect way to kill a lazy fall afternoon, college football starts early on Saturday morning, and it doesn’t stop till you’re passed out with a Hot Pocket on your stuffed belly. Women love it because they get to root for their favorite school and giggle at the shirtless frat boys, and men love it because, well, it’s football.
6. Take a nap
Time flies when you’re having fun, or when you’re asleep. If you couldn’t find the former, might as well go with the latter.
5. Hang out at the coffee shop
A great location to enjoy a tasty drink, people watch, read a book, or pretend you’re cool, the coffee shop is an excellent place to waste an afternoon under the auspices of actually doing something important.
4. Gossip media
Although most of us hate to admit, we all love to live vicariously through our celebrities. Unnecessary support, schandenfreude, envy… Gossip magazines satisfy all our baser needs. What are Brad an Angelina up to? Which Teen Mom’s baby daddy is in jail now? Did Benicio Del Toro really get locked in the port-a-potty shooting his latest movie? Who knows, but it’s all more important than whatever chore your significant other wanted you to get done this afternoon!
3. Shop for clothes
Doubly counter-productive, shopping for new clothes burns time and money! What better way to waste an afternoon than with a little bit of shopping therapy?
2. Go to the bar
Well, if you weren’t going to get anything else done, you might as well head out and enjoy a few drinks. You’ll make friends, have a good time, and you might just incapacitate yourself well enough to cover tomorrow afternoon too!
