Bored Beyond Belief

I feel kinda like Steve Martin in the middle of LA Story, only I don’t even have rain to watch.  I’m not even asking for a laugh-riot whirlwind of action, I just want something to do besides write about how bored I am.  Maybe I should brush up on my Spanish or Italian, or learn German, Russian, or Japanese so I can start reading weblogs from the other 2/3 of the world.

It’s not like I haven’t tried, either.  There are 71 webcomics on my list that update on mondays; I’ve gone through all of them, and 4 or 5 other new ones that I didn’t end up liking (although I did read through the entire archives of at least 2 of them).  I’m subscribed to nearly a hundred weblogs, but none of them have updated in the last hour or two.

At least earlier this week when I was puzzling through complicated phone system logs, I was occupied with something.  Now, “I got nothin’.”
