When you get bored, what do you do to entertain yourself?
Do you run amok? Do you wreak havoc? Do you....what?

Inquiring minds...

(plus, I'm bored)

7. I would...
but it's at home and I'm not. When I'm bored at home, that's when I tend to wash things like throw rugs and the kitchen curtains and....on occasion...even *gasp* iron stuff.

Thing is, I don't get as bored when I'm at home.

13. Depending on the time of day
I generally either knit or read. Or maybe bake. Sometimes write a little.

Napping is out of the question. I'm grumpy when I wake up.

10. Surf the web or go next door to debate my Grandfather
on politics. The debating is good to kill a 30-45 minutes a day.

43. We'll we agree on pretty much everything
He's an Indy. So I wouldn't call it debating. I guess it would be called discussing.

29. Sci-Fi/Fantasy.
Edited on Thu Nov-13-08 01:35 AM by Tilion
I'm currently reading To Light a Candle by Mercedes Lackey, book two of The Obsidian Trilogy. My favorite fantasy series thus far is definitely George R.R. Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire series.

38. How I occupy my time.
I think about the places I would visit, and things I would see if I could afford it. And spend time posting on the internet, which is free, and is something I can afford.
