What are some things I can do with a broken ankle?

I broke my ankle playing basketball the other day and I'm in a cast for 8-12 weeks and I'm getting so jittery. I've just been sitting on the couch watching TV all day and it sucks because I'm usually super active and athletic and I hardly ever spend more than an hour or so in one day sitting around and now that's all I have to do. And it's even harder because it's just starting to get nice out but I can't really go surfing or play baseball or basketball or do anything to really enjoy the sun. And I can't go to work, and I also can't drive anywhere because I have a cast and I'm on pain killers. I've been going for short walks I'm wondering if anyone has any suggestions as to things I could do to keep from going insane. I don't really play video games much or stuff like that but if anybody's got any suggestions of fun games I could play, I'm open to trying them out, I have a Wii and an xbox 360. Any suggestions are good ones at this point haha! Thank you!

    Get some small dumbbells and use those everyday to get your heart rate up . You can go to what ever you are interested in just not do as many sports. Maybe it is a good chance to study something.
