BORED BEYOND BELIEF

[image error]

I said to Dave when I got home from school today, “You’re never bored, are you?”

He said, “No. I’m never bored.”

I said, “Why not? I’m always bored.”

“I don’t have a restless mind like you do.”

*sigh*

Right on the money. I do have a very restless mind. I wish-

And isn’t that the most useless phrase in the English language? “I wish….”

I wish I could visit somewhere or

meet new people

or

start a new project

or

find a new hidden coffee shop

or

set up a pottery studio or a darkroom

or

find someone to speak French with and wander off to a hidden coffee shop with him/her

or

be a back-up singer in a band

or

go take a ride on the Cape May Ferry

or

live by myself for a month

or

get into a Monopoly marathon with someone

or

stand in the wind on the boardwalk eating pizza from Mack Manco’s

or

drive north into Canada or south into Mexico

or

not be so bored.
