Then don't answer it in the traditional fashion: turn it into a joke. "What did I do this weekend?" "I gave birth to a live baby zebra." It'll make people laugh (or at least smile), they'll think well of you and you never actually do tell them what you did for the weekend. Another tactic is to say "not much, what about you?" People love talking about themselves.
