Maybe you should buy/rent a book on tape. You could listen to it in your car or my library has a listening room where you can go and sit in a comfortable chair and listen to the books on tape that they have available. Some libraries also have a viewing room that provides movies, etc. or you could probably bring your own movie to watch.

Have you ever thought about volunterring somewhere? depending on how long you need to be away from your house. . . thrift stores always need volunteers or soup kitchens, maybe there is a program in your area that reads to children or visits the local nursing home.

Hope that helps.
