Bored. borborbored.... kids to bed, patgreene's asleep, there's nothing to do. Library's closed, and the only person I know on AIM is busy with schoolwork. What do most "normal" people do on Saturday nights? Or single people without kids? All I can think of to do is work -- NASA or housework.

Go out drinking, in the UK at least.

Alone? (curious look)

If there were a bar within walking distance, that would be worth considering... thanks.

Socially acceptable

I don't, myself, but a lot of people in the UK have `local' pub within walking distance where they are known on sight as a `regular' and can usually find someone to chat with. Another pattern (which, again, I don't actually do!) is to use public transport to get to a particularly popular pub or bar, read the evening paper, have a few drinks to relax with, and strike up some conversations.
