- Start reading that book you’ve been planning to read for years, but never seemed to get to.
- Turn off the computer, pick up the phone, and get in touch with a friend you haven’t talked to in a dog’s age. A BeatnikPad rule: never, ever regret.
- Get an ISSN for your Weblog, so you can truthfully claim that you write for a periodical with international distribution.
- Daydream of what will be, what has been, and what could have been.
- Start learning a new language, and try to find a native speaker to practice with.
- Try to catch 25 grapes in your mouth, one at a time.
- Hang out with your cats. (Okay, or dog, or hamster, or iguana, or ferret… )
- Alphabetize your spice rack, rotate your CD collection, and lament the passing of space-pop pioneer ¡Esquival!. Long live the Space Age Bachelor Pad!
- Go to the library and leave cryptic, passionate notes to a mysterious lover inbetween the pages of books in the Law section. Lawyers need all the help they can get.
- Unplug the phone and take a long nap, and then wake up and blow a bunch of time thinking up stupid, inane lists for the Web site.
Come on, folks. What’s a fun thing to do when you’re bored? Post ‘em in the comments.
