    you're, not "your"


    muahahahahahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

    Bored equals snacking. I"m better off keeping myself otherwise occupied.

    I am lucky that I can watch netflix or hulu at work... as long as my work is done the boss doesn't seem to care -- well and it also helps that my my monitor is large enough to have 1/2 screen work related and the other half the show :)

    When at work, get on MFP. :tongue:

    Read a book, watch a movie, meditate, exercise, or shop.

    Okay, now that I took off the Evil Grammar Beyatch hat, what do I REALLY do when I'm bored?

    1.) I surf the web.
    2.) I, of course, surf the MFP website.
    3.) I look out the window at the beauty of Lake Superior, and thank God that I live here.
    4.) I make up arguments in my head, with people that need a GOOD TALKING TO, but that I don't dare SAY the things I want to say to them, cuz they're my coworkers, or my boss, or the Big Cahuna, and I'd get in trouble or get fired, and who needs that, I ask ya?

    Usually I talk to people. Bores the hell out of some of them. I talk to my coworkers, text my friends, and just generally do anything that keeps me away from the food. Snacking is bad, so I bug my friends, which may be bad, but no matter how mad they are they can't put weight back on me

    I watch a movie, workout, browse pinterest or text. I'm working on my second Masters so I don't have a lot of time to be bored.

    Dont really get much downtime to be bored but when thre is time.......i sing and listen to music, i balance my checkbook (strictly to see if i can go shoe shopping), take a nap, search you tube for funny videos or super old music videos, send a mass text joke to see who bites lol, do prank calls to a few family members at work, search thru the thrift store for some cool stuff to re-vamp.
    Hope that helps

    Not sure I can post that on this forum..... ZING!

    No, when I get bored, I clean house. Figure I might was well kill 2 birds with 1 stone (get a little movement and a clean house). Unfortunately there are a lot of birds flying around my house so I need to get better aim with those stones.....

    I knit! (see profile picture - fingerless mittens that say "bam!" on one and "pow!" on the other. It gives me something to do with my hands (and I wouldn't want to eat at the same time and risk getting something on my lovely yarn) and it occupies my brain and then I have a lovely little accessory when I'm done. Nice yarn (cashmere anyone?) is a great reward for when I hit my goals instead of treats. Small items (like the mitts) are very portable too.
  • Video games.
    If I feel bored and need some exercise in, I'll play some Dance dance revolution, other than that just RPG's and shooters. :)
