Wow, I've been so productive today. I did million things I've been meaning to do for a long time now. Usually I'm too lazy to do anything, but today when I whirled around like crazy I noticed that when I actually just sat down and did nothing I was bored.
I don't remember the last time I was bored. If I have too much time and just laze around I enjoy it immensely. Today I didn't. I called a friend I haven't talked to for a while and during my phone call I had picked up a pen. I was doodling. When I put my phone down I had a sudden urge to draw. And I hate drawing.
I spent over an hour sketching while I was watching, or maybe listening would be better term for it, the telly. After I switched of the TV and concentrated on the task at the hand, time just flew by. At the end of my creative moment I noticed it was actually quite good. For me I mean. When I said I hate drawing, I really meant it. I don't think I have drawn anything in ten years. Not even doodled. I really don't like it, and I am not very good at it. Probably the reason for the lack of interest.
I think I need to revisit the things I claim to hate. It's actually pretty stupid to stop doing something just because you're not very good at it.
I like being bored sometimes. It gives me a chance to complain, which I love.

True, but then you're not bored anymore. You're doing something you're enjoying, which I love. Hehe. But I get you, sometimes complaining is marvelous way to spend time.
