Some good casual games to play on a laptop...

I just got a laptop for when I am sitting around the house, watching TV, lying in bed...

I got it so I could get out of my office (I work from home and my main gaming rig is in the same room so I feel like I have CABIN FEVER a lot)...

What are some casual games that I can play that are good for a laptop, that don't necessarily require hooking up a MOUSE to be as accurate as you need to be say in an FPS...?

Thanks for any suggestions...

Both can be comfortably played (keyword: comfortably) without a mouse.
 
You could go old school and find tons of games to play. The Fallout series is turn based for one, but may not be as casual as you want.
And I'd also recommend Plants vs Zombies, which from personal experience is playable without a mouse.
 
Alpha Centauri.

You'll sit there for a long, long time once you get into it. I played in during a 9 hour car ride, and it went by in a flash.
 
I guess it is possible, since several people say they have done it, but I cannot imagine playing on a laptop with only the touchpad. Personally, the only thing I hate more that the virtual keyboard on a tablet is using a touchpad on a laptop.

Couldn't you just use a small wireless notebook mouse?
