10/26 What do you normally do at home when you are relaxing?

When I was younger, I hated being cooped up at home.
* be cooped up: ~에 틀어박혀 있다. 
ex> You can't be cooped up in a room on such a lovely day.
cf> coop: a building for small animals, especially chickens

Now that I'm older, I can't get enough of those few rare hours where I can just veg out.
* veg out: 아무것도 하지 않고 빈둥거리다. (informal) to relax by doing sth that needs very little effort
ex> I just want to kick back and veg out.

I try to get some extra Zs because I can barely get five hours' sleep on the weekdays.
* take some Zs: 잠을 자다, take a nap
ex> I'm  just going to get some Zs before we head out.

I like to catch up on all of my favorite TV dramas.
* catch up on: (밀린 것을) 보충하다.

Although I feel like I'm just killing time at home, I really need these moments to get my mind off of things.
* get one's mind off of things: 머리를 비우다.
ex> You need to get your mind off of things for a while.  너 잠시 머리를 식힐 시간이 필요해.

@ It's matter of personal choice개인적인 취향의 문제야.
* chop: to cut sth into pieces with a sharp tool such as a knife, cut
* chic: very fashionable and elegant
