As a kid it was my catch cry, with its cousins "are we there yet" and "I'm hungry".
Now I have so many things to do, both things I want to and thing I have to do, that bored is a fond memory. Though really, even if given the chance to have nothing to do, I'll fill it up with a thousand things, plus one or two more, because I'm sure I can fit it in, somewhere. And then on the way too or from wherever I'm going I can be doing things too, whether it's texting, calling, reading, or even mobile internet surfing. Every minute of my day has something planned for it. And some things unplanned; they just get thrown in and somehow manage to get done - most of the time. It's a 'hit the ground running' world.
Down time?
I guess for me that's swimming or running, or gym. The more intense that is, the more relaxed I feel. Occasionally TV, but I try to avoid too much of that- and when I'm watching I'm constantly analysing - "is this really what I want to be doing with my time?"
But I love it. I thrive on doing things - getting things happening - interacting and creating. And while I love sleep - if I could skip it completely I would. A luxury for those times when, well I don't know - just a luxury that isn't in my diary just yet, but I'm sure I can find time for it, how about next month?
So what's on this week's agenda?
I need to start up a new business. The photography one I keep talking about. People keep wanting to buy my photos. Need to chat with the accountant about that one. Perhaps a few government bodies as well to get it registrered. See if I can create a website with the name I want. Finalise a logo...
Book accommodation for Stockholm & Reykjavik, and look into a few other accommodation options within Iceland too... Oh and then for another trip OS later in the year. (Yes Jed if you're out there - it's happening).
Upload the last of my pc photos to my imac and organise them.
Take Norten for a walk or 7.
Swim 5-7 times. Cook a few times more.
Run if my foot tendinitis is settled enough.
Chat to the builder about some renovations. Oh and to the estate agents too.
Write an interesting post or two on superchilled. One that people will want to read and make some kind of difference to the world.. maybe. Oh and find a wild wednesday theme.
I have a few people to catch up with too, and I think I need a haircut.
Ah yes, and then there's work, and we're 1 doctor short this week - so it will be especially busy for the next 2 weeks in fact. And there are a few review articles I want to read.
I'm very not bored.
But I'm still hungry...

Looking forward to your photography site.
Likewise :)
Let me know when you're creating that site. Best of luck.
Peter, Tom Cat & Phyneas: Will keep you informed - while I may get the website address soon - it might not be so fast for the site to appear on it... we shall see.
