When you're home alone, do you do the same things that you'd do if your boyfriend, husband, or sister was over? I've been home sick for the past few days and I've noticed that I definitely have my own secret single behaviors that are actually quite funny: I eat my favorite comfort foods, I set up shop on the couch and indulge in reality TV, I wear my most comfortable worn-in baggy sweat pants, and I soak in the tub until I turn into a prune! Now you all know my secret routine, so what's yours? Do tell ladies, what do you do when you're home alone?

I usually do a combination of relaxing and being productive. Like I'll read for an hour and then organize my desk or something. I often revert to doing something crafty as well.
1Ok, that's exactly the same secret routine that I have, right down to soaking until you are a prune, lol
2I sing loudly, play my music louder (because no one is there to object my taste!), I dance more, sit at my computer, possibly be productive... I talk on the phone more when I'm by myself too.
3I get comfy on the couch and sometimes I'll nap. Sometimes I like to sit in silence sit I hardly ever hear nothing or else I just like to keep the TV off, listen to music and write in my journal. I will also clean like a maniac.
4I usually clean, do a hair mask a face mask, my nails...work on some scrapebooks...watch some tv or go on the internet...
5And dance in my undies! I love dancing when no one is home
6i have that bed spread!
7I definitely do things I wouldn't do when the B/f is home... like wax my legs, do exfoliating masks, etc. Do some crunches, or maybe a pilates DVD... and clean... haha.
8I always walk around with out pants on. Everything else I do is up for grabs but please believe I come in the door unbuttoning my pants. They are just too much.
9I snuggle up on my boyfriend's side of the bed - aka the "power side" (the side with the alarm clock) and veg out, watch TV.
It's not a secret behavior, but I like to work on any freelance design jobs that I may have when I'm alone. When he's home, he likes to sit in my office with me when I work and talk, which is a distraction.
10i always end up raiding my closet and trying on new outfit combos.... i also try makeup looks before i get in the bath b/c then i can just wash it off... my bf will sometimes come home and be like, "why are you wearing bright red lipstick in the tub?" haha, secret single behavior...
11I pretty much do the same things I do alone that I do when my husband is home.
From the minute I get home, it is off with my regular clothes and into my pajamas. I usually check e-mail and scope out the internet. I do a lot of shopping online. Other than that, I spend most of my time studying. I am super boring!
12i put on sweats, clean my room and then pop in a DVD or put something in and snuggle in my bed until i fall asleep. totally lazy, but toally relaxing.
13I put on my ipod and dance dance like a crazy person...hehe
14I walk around in just a towel after my shower. I get ready slowly because there's no one rushing me. I blast my music. I sing in the shower.
15hahaha laney, i do the same thing!!! i like having little fashion shows by myself when nobody's around!!!
16omg, oatmeal_bliss, same here. i come home and put on my jammies. no question.
17Depends on my mood and/or if I have anything I need to get done.
18I live alone, so I really don't have any "secret alone" behavior
. I generally come home, put on sweats or PJ's. When I have lots of free time and just feel like vegging, I generally make myself something awesome for dinner (I
generally only cook maybe 1 or 2 days a week), clean up, and then lay in the bathtub and read for an hour or so.
19I wear my icky old sweats and tshirts, take my make-up off and do whatever I feel like. My favs are watching tv, painting my nails, cleaning something, organizing something or even just drinking a cup of tea and relaxing. I like not having to chat with anyone, that feels good sometimes.
20I clean up, organize the closet (again), then relax in front of the couch, watching tv or reading books, then also go back and forth to the Sugar network
21Clean, sing along to the radio, watch tv and be lazy.
This week i was home a sick a couple of days and i layed in bed watching tv and then would move to the couch for a change and watch some more tv. I caught up on stuff in my dvr.
22When I'm alone at home, I like to paint and write my book (so nice and quiet) but I also may just walk around in a towel after showering, and usually always clean the house.
23turn on my favorite entertainment (tv, radio, youtube) and start reading my favorite websites
24It's weird but I have a weird little schudule.
1. Hair Mask
2. Face Mask
3. While these are pentrating...
4. I clean the house
5. I take a bath and then shower
6. Relax and read
I feel so much more relaxed if things are organized and clean. I am not a clean freak but it just makes me feel better.
25I love laying in bed, eating a bunch of food and watching whatever is on TV. Of course, in sweat pants.
26Listen to music (alllways!) while either sitting at the computer (probably on Popsugar lol) or cleaning/dancing, a manicure... sometimes watch a movie if any good is on.
27I have a routine for the nights I'm home alone.. I spend time with my pup, take a shower, run around my house in a robe and a towel on my head, and get in bed and stay on the net for a while or watch a movie on my laptop until I pass out. Love it!
28Veg out on the couch, knit, pluck my eybrows the stuff I don't have time to do when I'm out and about
29Turn the music on loud and dance, haha. Very fun workout, highly recommended!
30Oh, and watch sappy/chick flicks that everyone else thinks is dumb/silly. IE: The Prince and I(Me), etc...
31I watch all kinds of bad TV that my fiance would never watch; it's like junk food for my brain. I also don't bother making a real dinner and play the same song over and over, working out a dance routine to it.
32I talk out loud to myself a lot when no one is around... is that normal?
33I also sing and dance sometimes. I bring all my schoolwork, laptop, etc. upstairs, take over the living room, and multi-task in front of the TV.
watch tv and be on the internet.
34I don't really have any secret single behaviors...I do what I want when I want to, whether my husband is home or not.
35Break out the comfort foods, walk around in my undies turn up the radio or watch my favorite shows! I love my alone time.
36Hehe... I talk to myself out loud too, Pistil. Occasionally my boyfriend will walk in and catch me doing it - thankfully my little puppy is usually by my side, so I can say I was talking to her
37Eat whatever I'm craving, watch whatever movies and listen to whatever music I want, or just cuddle around with a book and enjoy my alone time!
38Eat junk food while playing Sims 2 (total guilty pleasure) and watching a movie. Sometimes I'll go on my laptop and surf the internet while I wait for the Sims to load.
39for some reason i don't like to watch videos when my dh is home. so i do that and i'll eat things he won't (like fish) for dinner.
40I clean. Do dishes. One of my roomate's is f*cking psycho and has a habit of acting like mom about dirty dishes (and everything else), so I instinctively avoid doing dishes when they're around.
41I read! It's not often... having silence a home!
42I put on chick flicks or the food network (he hates that lol) read fashion and gossip magazines, do masks or facials...
431. Clean - because I am always too lazy when my bf/bd is around
442. Surf the net - Either reading gossip sites or window shopping
3. Read magazines !!!
4. Watch TV - play with my Tivo
5. Shave my legs
I take advantage with hubby is not home to listen to my favorite music and watch DVDs that he doesn't like. I'll also clean like a maniac and take advantage of his absence to throw things away without him knowing (he tends to keep a lot of unnecessary junk!)
45I really do enjoy my alone time. It's refreshing.
I'm kinda like popgoestheworld.
46I try to do productive things like clean the kitchen or the bathroom, maybe do some laundry, but I love to read books, flip thru magazines and watch home improvement shows on tv.
I'll occasionally make some jewelry too, something new and cute to wear.
It is nice to have the remote to myself.
take over the lounge and get myself comfy on the couch in front of the big tv and play the sony, watch tv (seinfeld and any sport including footy, cricket, tennis or bball)
47enjoy a quiet beer or two by myself or invite me friends over for a night of drinking
put some music on really loud
surf the internet (myspace and imdb and the 'hub')
invite the girlfriend over
sleep
relaxxx
