Oh yeah...about being bored.
I'm with country woman. If I get bored I find something to do...anything-tv, dvds, some kind of pointless project like looking up everything I can about Quakers...then I'm not bored anymore...I might be boring...but I'm not bored. I don't get have a lot of free time so I like those days when I can sleep as late as I want and have no place to go and nothing to get done...
When I'm bored I usually start reading a book or watching a movie or playing a game or the piano or exercising!! In the past when I was bored I'd just Google for something I'd always been interested in but just never got around to learning about. :)
GO FISHING!!!!!
Is anyone else obesessed with angling? Or more specific, fly-fishing. I live in the Pacific Northwest and the fishin' here is top-notch. Salmon, Steelhead, Halibut, Walleye, the list goes on. You havn't truly lived until youve brought a 400# sturgeon up from the bottom of the Columbia River. ( The Washington State record for White Sturgeon is 1800#!!! 20 feet in length! No BS!) These fish are commonly caught in the 8-12 foot range. Excellent Smoked. Good times. That my friends makes for an awesome weekend. You sure as hell can't catch fish while you're out knockin' on peoples' doors and ruining their weekends. TAKE A KID FISHING.
cleaning the house (only when I'm very, very, very bored or that the house is very very very not clean) I'm not a householder at all !!! the minimum is ok in the matter !
I read books, I have hobbies like making jewelry, scrapbooking, etc.
But if you're bored you need to get out and mingle with people. Find a coffee shop and go and sit somewhere and read, at least be out and mixing with other people. Try your Barnes and Noble if you have one.
Well if the "city" is Peoria your in trouble!
Here's what you do... ready... MOVE hahahaha
Anyway I don't get to ski or board much anymore as I now live in florida! I get up to snowshoe wv about twice a year for a few days though! I don't have ski's now I've boarded for about the last 12 years exclusivly but last year I skied a bit (with my bros's ski's) and enjoyed it (I skied for 5 years before I took up the board) and now that I'm older and have some knee problems I think I may go back to skiing more... My bro lives in asheville Nc and so I may start going more as I could stay with him and hit beech and some others from there... who knows!
Well usually FMZ makes scones and we have cream and tea with them.
And the Valis comes over and we pretend to hide from him
Then boa shows up and we talk about girls.
Then we all have pillow and tickle fights
i'm rarely bored. but i do spend time on weekends warming up the radio shack with a couple of tube finals making contacts all over the world.

I like to do work on my scrapbooks. I indulged myself this christmas and I bought a beautiful Christmas scrapbook with Victorian embelishments and beautiful papers. I asked my aunt who is not a witness to scan picturees of me and our family when we celebrated Christmas and with the last five Christmas' we've had I have a lot of nice pictures with memories to last a live time.
I also like TV and good movies

With me it's more like written on a piece of paper and taped to my back, kinda like in "Back to the Future" where the "kick me" paper is taped to the back of George McFly's back and the bald principal comes and rips it off. lol It does make you appreciate the good friends when you find them though. I liken it to having a bucket full of cubic zirconia diamonds with one real diamond in there somewhere. When you find that real diamond, get out the ring, put that diamond on it, and show it off to everyone and don't let it get away !
LOL would someone check my back to see if I have something taped to it??
That is a neat way of looking at it! Hope you have lots of good friends!
