roll around

Turn over repeatedly

Roll around means to move by turning over repeatedly, as a ball or a body on the ground: The dog rolled around in the grass.

It also describes the arrival of a recurring time: By the time summer rolls around, we'll be ready.

To roll around laughing is to laugh so hard you lose composure: We were rolling around at his impression.
