You know you're bored when...

[scheherazade_79]

You spend a good ten minutes choosing a book to read on the toilet.

You don't just pluck your eyebrows, but dream up new and interesting shapes to make... and then get bored halfway through, so you end up looking like Mr Spock on one side and Brooke Shields on the other.

You find yourself vacuum-cleaning like a pro - not just the main bit of carpet, but all the dark corners and even behind things and in hidden uninhabited spaces. While you're doing this, you imagining winning an award from the Queen for your breathtaking vacuuming skills.

It doesn't matter what the weather's doing - you just have to leave the house.

You find yourself cleaning up your pc and deleting files you no longer need.

You change your mind about those files ten minutes later, and then feel angry when you realise that you've emptied your recycle bin.

You get the urge to sit down and smoke a packet of twenty, and in the back of your mind that's ok cos it means that you won't be bored during the time you're doing that.

You take a totally unsavoury delight in squeezing your own blackheads.

You finish squeezing your own blackheads, then find yourself wishing you lived with a teenager so that you could have a go at theirs.

You stick something up your nose, just to see how deep it really goes.

Just two things.

I would have to be REALLY bored to imagine getting accolades from the Queen as I am American, but I'm not saying I haven't been that bored

And thank you for reminding me to clean out my recycling bin

I have my uses.

Cleaning the gutters will be the highlight of your day.

That's a very bad sign...

 

[scheherazade_79]

... you decide to go and eat something, despite the fact that you're not all that hungry, because you've stuffed all day.

I think I have nicotine withdrawal, actually

The comments that could come from that sentence.

Considering I just sorted and catagorised all of the odds and ends of screws in my tool/parts drawer I think I may have you beat.

You finish sewing the cross stitch you started over a year ago.

((But only because Mark said he liked it, so I finished it to give to him))

Windows. Solitaire.

You find yourself reading an article on the contribution of Marie Antionette's wardrobe to the downfall of the French monarchy. Yeah, THAT's boredom!

I forgot to add - the winner gets to cook gourmet food for me, clean the house and put my hot water bottle in bed (with my night attire wrapped around it for extra warmth) for a whole week

I can do the cooking gourmet food and hot water bottle thing, easy. The cleaning? You do remember I'm a student, right?

You know you're bored when you design and start working on a Christmas Light Display that will most likely cause rolling brownouts in your neighborhood.

Is that boredom or stupidity?

(I am guilty of the same thing.)

Well I wont be creating the dancing lights display shown last year, but I'm sure this one will cause people to at least slow down on the main road.

Give me a year or so and this will be something to be seen.

Now if I could only find me some lighted Flamingo Sculptures.

You know you're bored when . . .

You read through every single post on this thread, and then try to think up something you would do if you were really bored.

Man, I gotta write something . . . .

 

[MagicaPractica]

I go read posts on the GB. I always leave with a dirty feeling. *shudder*

No kidding! Some of the shit I've seen in there! And I do mean shit. It's like walking down the corridors of a middle school in between classes. 'You called me this!' 'So-and-so's gay!'

Ah . . . just makes me feel more like an adult.

Although I did make the mistake of posting on a thread once. Thankfully, it died.
