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.

What I do when I'm alone at night:

Read
Do one of my crafts
Wake a sweetie up for snuggling and/or sex
Sleep
Watch television
Read some more
Meditate
Cook (it relaxes me)
Write in my journal
Work on my novel or poetry
Call my mom or a sweetie
Fire up a chat thing (I don't do this right now because I'm between residences and don't have a computer at the moment)

Cooking would be another good idea, if I had someone else to feed... it relaxes me as well, and there's an element of experimentation :-).

For what it's worth, I often cook for just myself. I either make a regular-sized recipe and freeze some, or I halve (or third or whatever) a recipe and make just enough for me. Or if it's something other family members would like, I just make the whole batch and let them know it's available.
