Parents Away - How can I stay busy?

So my parents are away Friday to Saturday overnight! It's not that often I get the house to myself at night. I would invite friends over to stay but they are all busy 
I want to keep myself busy, particularly at night. Although I tend to normally spend my time alone in my room at night, I just feel more "responsible" that my parents will be away! This is kinda embarrassing but I'll probably start worrying about people breaking in or fires since I'm alone at night.
I need to stay distracted or I will start worrying and overthinking things - not good for me or my MH.
Guess I just need suggestions to keep myself busy.
