How about heading to the beach to watch the sunset? That is calming and peaceful. Or just sitting in a park for a little while. Being out will seem really hard but it passes the time in a productive way. I can understand if this sounds too hard but I wish I had done it a few days ago.
I find old school chatting on IRC to be the best online activity to keep me distracted, while watching whatever my current TV show craze is - I can recommend some good stories that are easy to watch and entertaining, although I have sci fi taste. Triple J is playing some awesome music today. I've had that on most of the day.
Hope its not too rough a night for you.
