The first thing you must do is to let your friends know that yes, they still need to feed the cat for a few days, that you won’t be back for little Jimmy’s birthday party and that indeed you’re stuck in an airport because a stupid volcano went off. Then you need to kvetch. Don’t worry, you’ve earned it.

OK, it’s still early on this stuck journey and you’re done kvetching for now. Now it’s time to do some good and be productive. What better way than to go around and help those airport workers stuck with the same lame predicament you are (except that, you know, they get to go home tonight). Level some art at the airport and finish knowing that you’ve contributed in a time of trial. You are a better person. You really are.

Foursquare – Find Places to Eat, Drink, and Visit
While you’re walking around straightening art why not become the mayor of the ENTIRE AIRPORT!?! You own this place. You’ve been here for hours. People will bow down when they see you coming.

Still got some energy in you? Might as well make use of it. If you have some legwarmers and a leotard in your bag there’s no reason you can’t use this opportunity to do some aerobics. Sure, people will think you’re strange but you’ve been sitting in an airport for two days. No one will judge and at least you’ll entertain all those without a smart device. Yes, you’re dancing like you’ve never danced before. You go you maniac!

Just look at that dumb person next to you. They are so annoying. They keep looking at you and, you know, doing stuff. In fact all the people around you are annoying. How is it possible that you’ve gotten stuck in an airport full of annoying people? What are the chances?
You know what you should do? You should show them how smart you are. You should tell them about how wrong they are. Yeah that’s right, use this app and the myth busters to make these dumb annoying people a bit smarter. I’m sure they’ll thank you for it later. You might want to keep the leotard and legwarmers on for this one though, you know, just in case these people have anger issues from sitting in an airport for two days. Not like you. You’re perfectly serene. Serenity NOW!
TED
Just because you’re sleeping in an airport in two day old underwear you don’t have to be one of those weirdos in leotards and legwarmers doing aerobics (well, not anymore at least). You can be getting smarter and more cultured by watching TED talks. Maybe there’s one on volcanoes?
Ocarina
It’s three days in now and Ocarina is your app. Why? Because blowing into your phone to make pretty sounds is about all you have left in you right now.
