Help
So.
If you're totally bored at home, and you're just wondering around, what do you do to fill in the time?
At the moment, I'm posting here. But normally I'd probably go for a run or shoot some hoops.
Until a week ago I used to spend most of my time sailing and windsurfing but I got in a bit of car crash with a friend of mine (his fault!) and my car boot now doesn't open, so I can't put any kit in it.
Et toi?
What do you do?

I know what a car boot is...but I'm not sure on the kit. Us Americans are silly.
Well, you see...I usually just go to school.

Can you imagine if I was deranged?

I either watch TV or post here, but free time is usually at a bit of a premium.
On a side note, I'm not real sure why a lot of Americans can't figure out what kit means, my lot has been using the term for as long as I can remember. Not to mention that it, in context, is really pretty self explanatory anyway. I blame used-car salesmen.

I make up something to amuse myself, usually involving creating a complex pen and paper strategy game (as opposed to something like D&D). Getting the rules right and balancing out everything usually takes enough hours that something interesting is bound to come along.

I sit on my ass, listen to music, check my LiveJournal every few minutes, and get up every once in a while to pee and eat. If my friends call and want to hang, I'll hang with them.

Wake up. Go to school. Eat a snack. Open my Tabs (MacSurfer, Apple, CNN, news.google, ESPN, NFL, PennyArcade, Ambrosia, Maddox, USWX Weather). Sign on AIM every 30 minutes until someone I want to talk to comes on. Do homework during this entire time. Eat Dinner. Repeat everything between and including eat a snack and sign on AIM. Sleep.
That is an average day. I don't include things like doing stuff with friends because that isn't a routine or anything; it happens at random times.

I work on coding, or tinkering with my computer, or what have you. Alternately, I solve logic puzzles and riddles, which I love.

I spend my time sleeping, doing My Ap Chem homework(which is the devil), calling myself a dumbass for inadvertantly wrecking a relationship with a girl who is literally perfect for me, and contemplating the horrible fact that my parents are getting a divorce. Sounds like fun, doesn't it?

I'd like your Chemistry homework, but you can have the other stuff...

I do homeworktalk to homies on AIM sometimes...play on my computer. I play mostly RPGs.
On the weekends, I go to shows, and/or drink with with friends. And spend time with Toni

If I'm really bored, I'll practice my sax...unless I'm in the mood to play..which is sometimes..otherwise I just lay in bed and listen to music...Ah..the good life.
Whatever happens..happens.

That's cause you're bedridden.

I think that being ridden with beds would be a fate I could live with, especially if said beds came fully equipped with televisions, microwaves, and foxy mattress saleswomen.

Hell yes. They should build WoW into everything so I can play it without stopping.

Finally! A good idea to come out of a nick!
