City: Morris County State: NJ | Boredom is my enemy
My job has its ups and downs. Right before the 1st and the 15th of every month, our office is a madhouse of activity and it's all I can do to keep afloat. But in the intervening periods there are always a few days of absolute, deadly BOREDOM.
So what do I do? Nibble. I just nibbled my way through the entire middle of my ham-and-brie sandwich, PLUS half of the french-bread roll!! It's easy to eat if you nibble.
COME ON, PHONE, RING!!! Save me from myself!!
What do you do when there's nothing to do and you're trapped?

I know what you mean about boredom, that was a biggy for me too. How about cleaning out your desk or something like that to pass the time by? I am still young in this journey but I didn't realize you would be able to eat sandwiches, let alone french rolls? I am dying for bread!! I didn't think it would be a possibility anymore after the banding, does it go down okay?

Misty, normally I wouldn't have eaten the bread for lunch; I almost never take more than a bite of it. But when it's possible to sit for an hour and nibble, sure, bread can go down. :rolleyes The bread in question was a very dark multi-grain baguette type of bread, so it took a lot of chewing in the first place. And with all this empty time to fill it was too tempting!
Hell, it isn't that I have nothing to do; there's ALWAYS something to do. But it's too darned quiet. I'm a multi-tasker and cleaning out my desk is NOT an option! :D :D :D

I always come on here and post, balace my checkbook, browse on the computer, pay bills, or find a book to glance through. Although usually there isn't any spare time for me! Sometimes I make out a grocery list so that I have something in my hand at the store.

I have a very boring job, so I find myself often on LBT posting meaningless dribble, LOL! I am also researching everything I can about home building. And, I am an avid gardner so I am ALL OVER Gardenweb. If there is one thing I do really well, it's research on the internet. Gosh, one of these days I'll probably get reprimanded for constantly being on-line, but who cares, LOL!
