I’m off until at least 5 Feb due to a boxers fracture. I’m getting sick of TV and movies. Today I’ll clean my apartment, but even with my busted hand it will only take a couple of hours. I can’t really go anywhere as I need to save as much money as I can to cover for missed time at work.

Here’s what I’ve tried so far:

  • Solve Rubik’s cubes
  • Work on music production
  • Sleep

Thing I probably should do:

  • Continue to learn Swift
  • Follow makeup tutorials

Lemmy, what would you do?

EDIT: Keep ‘em coming Lemmsters! I LOVE the suggestions, and can’t wait to give some of these a go!

I can’t really go anywhere as I need to save as much money as I can to cover for missed time at work.

By far the most American thing I've read in a while.

Answering the question: How about reading some books?

Get well soon, OP!

Thanks for the well wishes ☺️ I’ve ordered like 7 books based on recs from everyone. Do you have a fave book?

[–] amelia@feddit.org 3 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Recommendations would probably depend a lot on what kind of books you like.

One I read recently and loved is "Extremely loud and incredibly close" by Jonathan Safran Foer.

I like the premise! I put it on my wishlist.
