Yesterday I didn’t write a post for #Blogtober20. Though I wrote a blog post, I didn’t post it to the linky or Facebook group. Today I’m hopping back onto the bandwagon and writing on today’s prompt, “Girls Just Want to Have Fun”. I’m going to share the things I do just for the fun of them.
1. Read chicklit. I am normally mostly into memoirs or young adult fiction about serious topics. When I just want to have fun, however, I read a romcom or other lighthearted women’s fiction. Most recently, I’ve been reading The Falling in Love Montage by Ciara Smyth.
2. Find jokes. I am subscribed to a funny E-mail list where the owner sends out daily jokes and comics. I cannot enjoy the comics, of course, but I love the jokes.
I also love to listen to my husband crack jokes. He and I both are a fan of wordplay.
I also love the kind of lists that describe what it’s like to live in a certain state or city. There at one point was one about Nijmegen, the city I went to university in. I related a lot to the things mentioned.
3. Dance. Well, walk in place to the beat of music. I love some playlists on Spotify of fast-paced dance and pop music. I cannot dance at all, but I love to move my body in the rhythm (or out of the rhythm, for that matter, as my sense of rhythm is poor) of the music.
4. Write and read funny blog posts. I particularly love memes and tags. I still need to participate in a couple of tags that I saw on other blogs and liked.
What do you do just for fun?
It sounds like you have some great ways to have fun.
I am not a good dancer either but it is a lot of fun x

Yes, it definitely is! I usually dance alone in my room, so no-one sees me anyway.

Oh yes, funny memes are so good! I’m so glad I can appreciate at least some of them now that there’s automatic image description/OCR.

I am 100% about dancing. Great for mental health and well being (and not to shabby on fitness) and getting lost in a book you love is good too! Lovely post!

Agree about the benefits of dancing, though usually I don’t think about those when dancing.

It’s nice that you appreciate good humor so much, and that you and your husband share similar senses of humor.
Chicklit? I’m also “guilty”!

Definitely read funny books and blogs, that always cheers me up. I can’t dance either, well, I mean I couldn’t dance when I could actually stand, lol. I still join in with a big of arm jigging though.

I love participating in blog tags also! I also love jokes, and asking alexa to tell me a joke on different topics.

I don’t know. Amazon won’t accept payment methods other than credit cards for Audble and such here, so I’ve never thought it useful.
