lounging around


Lounging around

Definition: To pass time idly

Etymology: 1508, from Scot., of uncertain origin, perhaps from Fr. s'allonger (paresseusement) "to lounge about, lie at full length," from O.Fr. alongier "lengthen," from L. longus "long."

Sentence: I was lounging around in the coffee shop, then the shop owner told me to leave if i did not want a drink.
