Another idea is to make a family of 8, and only allow yourself to control 1 of them!
I've done this one and it's actually quite a bit of fun... especially if you're an apartment in San Myshuno that has some negative lot traits. lol The other challenges simmers have mentioned are all great starts as well. My favorite is the runaway teen, and I also remodeled all the neighborhoods into a medieval theme and made my sim live on the land with only a tent, campfire, and bush to pee in on her home lot. If she wanted a shower she had to utilize a public shower (she usually hit up the monastery for that). It was a fun adventure that got cut short because CL released. I definitely plan on going back to it, though. The Medieval and survival theme is a lot of fun.
There are a few versions of Apocalypse challenges out there as well. You can write your own rules or use someone else's (just google Apocalypse challenge TS4). I wrote my own, because I couldn't stand the idea of never going outside at all. Anyway, remodeling my neighborhoods to fit a nuclear fallout scenario was really cool and fun and so was the play through of the challenge. With Lot Traits, I imagine it would be even more fun now.
If you're truly bored, though, and none of the great ideas in this thread sound interesting to you... take a break and play something else. Sometimes you just need a fresh adventure (my favorite distractions are Skyrim, Dragon Age: Inquisition, and The Witcher 3 with a smattering of Don't Starve Together and The Long Dark). ;)
