Lamesauce


My husband tells me, and the children with whom he works: "If you're bored, you're boring."

I'm bored right now.

Of course I SHOULD be doing plenty of things.  It is the end of the year and it is a veritable whirlwind of last-minute-ry. But the truth is that the doing of those things would result in making me both more bored and infinitely more boring.

so I do the twenty-first century equivalent of twiddling my thumbs; I search the internet, following one whim after  another, time ticking away until I must meet (with half a heart and even less of a brain) my next of the day's many obligations.

Idle hands are the devil's playthings.

But here idle hands are restricted to work-safe sites.

So, really, idle hands are just the playthings of a task-avoidant middle school teacher.

Which is infinitely more boring.
