Creative Boredom

Ok, so for the last few days, I've been decisively bored. Why? Partly as a coping mechanism, and partly because I've got no one to talk to or do anything with. Anyway, I've just been doing things to keep from going insane. So, if your as bored as I am, you can read some of the weird things I do to keep myself occupied. Who knows, if your really that bored, you might even try them yourself.

First, there's the normal stuff, like reading, writing, and gaming. If your looking for a good series to read, may i suggest the Harry Dresden series, or better yet, anything written by Terry Pratchett? If your into those "Twilight" books, then you might also enjoy the Sookie Stackhouse series by Charline Harris. Writing poetry is always good, and writing a novella or short story is always fun. As for gaming, can anyone say, "Super Smash Brothers Brawl?"

Then, there's the seasonal stuff. Wrapping presents, setting up the "non-denominational, politically correct pine tree." I spent a FORTUNE this xmas on presents for my friends and family this year, and that always is a good way to distract you from ANYTHING.

Finally, there's the weird stuff. These are things that I do that even make me think I'm insane. One of the things I like to do is try and peel a tangerine all in one band. A cool variation of this is if you peel the center, then flip the top and bottom caps so that it takes roughly the shape of an apple core. Another fun thing to do, (if your insane, like me,) is to come up with parodic lyrics for your favorite songs, (or holiday songs. Tis the season.) If your lazy, you can settle for making titles for songs that make them more interesting, (all I want for christmas is my two front teeth... a nuclear warhead, and a deathstar.)

Thanks,
