Boredom

Boredom is one of those things that comes for you when you least expect it.
You've taken the trash out. Spilled bin juice all over your jeans. Cursed bin juice to the sky.
You've taken your 2nd or 3rd shower for the day. Either used up all the hot water, or become so water logged and prune-y you actually resemble one of your grandparents.
You've surfed every page in your bookmarks on the internet. Blogged (this is me right now), updated status, talked to people (or not, like me), scrolled, clicked and linked your day away, but it's still only 6:18pm. And there's no alcohol.
You've drank all the alcohol. You don't want to open the bottle of fanta you bought to make Rum jobs (the official drink of Knockin' Boots podcast), because you want to save it for the weekend, and you know that if you open it it'll be flat by then and you'll have to drink all the rum. Then have nothing to drink come Saturday.
You've animated/productive recreational activitied all you can muster for one day. And you keep telling yourself that you'll be starting work tomorrow, so you should just chill out. But you CAN'T! So you animate some more.
You've caught up with your best friend, had coffee, and talked about pointless but enjoyable things.
You think about drawing something, but figure you never draw well when this bored.
Then you think, 'do I ever draw well?!' and flick through your most recent mole-skin to discover that in fact, you suck massive donkey balls at drawing.
You consider taking that 3rd or 4th shower.
You've watched all the TV/watchable movies on your computer/HD's and can't download anything else without potentially going over the download limit, thus DOOMING EVERY THING YOU EVER HELD DEAR!!! (By being reduced to 24kb/s until the end of the month - this means no YouTube, Tumblr or downloads).
You've thought long and hard about your life. Where it is, where it's going and how you feel about that. Only to realize you're now thinking about how hungry you always are. So you trip to the fridge, open it for the umpteenth time that day only to discover YES.. yes indeed there is nothing to snack on in here.

So what do you do? Pray? (Laughs).

No, you put on that episode of 30Rock you've seen 5 or 6 times before, open the fanta bottle (probably), dry your hair from the 5th shower and remark at what an incredible day you've had.
