1. Binge-watch reality television
2. Photoshop animal heads on human bodies and post online
3. Make large quantities of borscht
4. Organize sock drawer alphabetically according to color
5. DANCE PARTY
So, while these are all totally excellent options, obviously (as indicated by the cap-lock) I feel a particular affinity for option 5. Why, you ask? Several reasons–
Why Dance Parties are the Best
First of all, reality tv turns your brain into shallow, consumerist mush. Turn off your f***ing tv. Seriously. Second, making borscht turns your hands red. Third, I already photoshopped animal heads and organized by sock drawer (totally confused about what to do with the striped socks–under “S”? so I had to stop).
Which brings us to dance parties. Dancing in general is fabulous. When you are in public, it is fun, good exercise and really the only socially acceptable reason reason to hip bump with total strangers. But dancing in the privacy of one’s own home shoebox apartment is a different kind of nirvana because you get to be SO WEIRD. And anyone who has been paying attention understands that I really appreciate any opportunity to be weird. So a Sunday afternoon dance party it is. Check out the Timeout dance party playlist and go bust a move already–you don’t learn how to twerk by just sitting on your a** and playing on the computer.
