feeling bored? have i got a cure for you.

August 8, 2008 · 2 Comments

i was off work again today, as i mentioned in yesterday’s post. the reason i have so much time off is because my company put in extra time over last weekend getting a presentation together, so the ceo rewarded us with time off. not a bad trade, eh?

anyway, though i have (a lot of) time off, ryan does not. but luckily i am one of those people who doesn’t get bored very easily, if at all. i’m not kidding – even if i didn’t have internet connection, i would still be able to find ways to entertain myself. ryan, however, gets bored quite easily if he is not doing something productive. poor fella. so, in typical danny fashion, i shall put together a list of things you can do should you feel boredom knocking at your door:

1. sing

2. read

3. stalk people on facebook

4. sleep

5. watch vids on youtube, or a movie, or television

6. look up lyrics to songs or broadway musicals

7. look up quotes

8. play games: solitaire, sudoku, minesweeper, etc.

9. put together new outfits

10. clean

11. think

12. dance

13. make a movie

14. act out broadway songs as you listen to them (you can even use props if you’d like)

15. construct paper cranes using each color of memo note, then place them around your fish tank so the fish feel like they’re under attack

16. take a walk (outside)

17. read through old letters

18. call people

19. ryan just told me to put “exercise” but i do not condone this

20. sceneroize different things in your brain (this is different than thinking because sceneroizing involves made-up things, like the word sceneroize). this could also fall under the category, “daydreaming”

21. take pictures of yourself (lots of people do it, i just admit it)

22. write letters, emails

23. try to master an accent

24. make hand puppets (or sock puppets) and give them voices using the accent you are trying to master

–those are merely a few suggestions and all are guaranteed to rid you of boredom or your money back!

ahh! listen to what i just found! i was examining my right knee, and i found a freckle in the shape of a heart on the very tip top of my knee cap! it seriously looks like a heart. i shall call him “Art the Heart” and he shall, from this day forward, henceforth, e pluribus unum, mano y mano, hitherto, be my new favorite freckle. and together we shall conquer… the… er… world?

be bored no more, dear reader. for i have passed along the wisdom of my ways. …you’re welcome.
