Unemployment was fun for the first five months, but now you’re back living with your parents and the novelty of wearing pajamas all day has worn off. With businesses on a hiring freeze and your personal bank account dwindling, it’s time to focus on life’s less significant yet surprisingly satisfying activities you used to be too busy for.

Touch Yourself

    Explore new fantasies—ones you thought you’d never have time for.  Never wanted to do it in a spray-cheese factory, you say?  That’s just because you’ve never visualized it.  
    What about a kangaroo farm or a hot air balloon?  Time to put your default “choir girl in the pastor’s confessional” to rest already and discover what else works for you!

A Touch of Romance

Sometimes it takes a little extra encouragement. Don’t be shy! Trix might be for kids, but toys sure as hell aren’t.

Take an active interest in personal hygiene.

  Suffering from a neglected navel?  Ears haven’t had a visit from the Q-tip fairy in a while?  What about that gunk under your fingernails?  ’Tis the season to be flossing, my friend.  If not now, when?

If he can do it, so can you.

 

Feel free to explore new foods.

After all, now you have the time to work it off.  Curious to see if eating a whole rum cake can get you drunk?  Go for it!  Nothing a half a day’s run at the gym won’t fix.

Preserve memories of the days you were a desirable employee.

No employee Christmas party this year?  That shouldn’t stop you from dressing up, enjoying a glass of wine, and locking last year’s eggnog induced extravaganzas within the binding of an ostentatious scrapbook.  Shucks, go crazy. . .use lace!
