My job has large patches like this. I refer to it as "fire duty". I'm not being paid to do anything. I'm being paid to do the correct thing in an emergency. I'm the insurance.
Your best bet is to check your rules, either on paper, or to ask and do an appropriate hobby. It's particularly effective if its a cumulative hobby (thing programming rather than computer games). If queried on it, you're just keeping your brain up at speed.
