    No boredom eating allowed! Do boredom pushups instead

    Just take a deep breath and walk around your office for a few minutes, or outside! Don't give in!!

    Totally feel the same way!
    It's been bad here this week so far! Real slow!
    I try to keep a drawer full of good for me snacks and I keep a dish of carrot and celery sticks in the frige here at work.
    Makes it a little easier.
    Stay strong!

    I'm bored today, too. I just went onto www.igoogle.com and put together my own hompage. One of the gadgets on the page is a couple of turtles swimming around. You can feed them and interact with them (kind of). I'm not saying it takes a lot of brainpowere (or any for that matter...lol), but it gives you something to do! LOL

    Whatever you do...DON'T GO TO THE VENDING MACHINE! You'll only regret it later!

    vending machines should have to put all the candies in backward so while you are staring at what you want all you see is the nutritional info! :laugh: That would stop me!

    If you have to - give your wallet and spare change to a trusted co worker or lock it up in a locker so you have to work to get to the machine :)
