...what now?

What do people who aren't writing novels do with themselves on the weekends?
Seriously... now that I've finished the first draft, and I've told myself to take a four month vacation from writing... I don't know what to do with my time anymore. I mean, even before, when I did other stuff, it was to procrastinate writing the novel.
I guess soon the Supernatural DVDs will be out, and I'll have rewatches to do and clothing to catalogue, and that will probably take up the entire month of October. So, maybe I should just enjoy this time... but still. Bored!
In other news, the Teen Wolf fandom is very strong. How do I know? Well, I have never seen an episode of Teen Wolf, nor have I ever read any Teen Wolf fanfiction... but last night I had a dream about Sterek. The blame is to be solely placed on the plethora of gifs on tumblr. I am a Sterek shipper and I've never even seen the freakin' show.
Anyway...I'm off to figure out what to do with my life now... maybe I'll get married and have a kid or something, I guess that's what other people do in order to keep themselves busy... though, that doesn't sound like something I can drop in 4 months when I need my weekends to write the second draft of my novel, so screw that plan. :P

One day I couldn't work on stuff bc the security on my computer wanted to scan everything first, so I cleaned my house, folded my laundry and had another most wonderful idea for a tabletop game.

Ooo, tabletop games! Those are fun!
