What do you do when you're sick?

Heya! I've had to come home from work because I'm too run down with some kind of flu.

I'm going mad. I can't work out, can't go for a run. I can't focus on any freelance work. I don't have the energy to paint or record anything. I've just about got the energy to vacillate between my desk and my bedroom, but it's driving me nuts being so unproductive. I'm on a losing streak in online chess.

I've already eaten way past my maintenance calories. My hoover doesn't work so good else I'd be hoovering the apartment. I've done laundry and the dishes. I need a productive, non-thinky, preferably arty, low effort task.

So, what do you lot do when you can't do anything? When you're sick, run down, out of energy, or just having a day of paralyzing executive dysfunction -- how do you get through it without driving yourself up the god damn wall?
