I am Bored.

I am bored. To death.
I am infinitely and definitely bored.
I am sitting and counting the ways in which I am bored and even that is boring. Obviously this is a phase...it cannot..it just cannot be anything more than a phase.
But what if this is more than a phase? What if I am caught in a lifelong trap....one day falling through itself and running into the next..nothing to distinguish one from the other..nothing to remember or forget..Nothing happens out of pattern.
Where does monotony end and boredom begin?
I hate clocks tick tock-ing their way through existence...and now "I am so bored" is tick tock-ing round and round inside my head. Now that I think of it, it runs with a rhythmic beat. 1,2,3,4....I am bored..I am bored.
Drink water-I am bored...
Check mail- I am bored...
Take a bath- I am bored.....

The world breathes, lives and exists in a beat...I am bored.
How bored am I?
I can read a new book. Boring.
Take a walk. Boring.
Facebook, tweet, chat...social networking? Networking? Boring.
More people. New people. Boring.
On Monday, the week looks boring.
On Saturday the weekend looks boring.
Days are boring....
Run into a scooter. Shockingly boring.
I should tap people for new music. Boring.
Nina Simone. Boring (blasphemy!!!)
Stare at the wall and look for faces...where did the Cossack go? Boring.
Muse about abstracts..time..space..blah blah blah. Boring.
Toy with fixations. No wait...find a new fixation. Boring.
Accusation are boring. I said something, people understood something else. I should sit and figure out what I meant when I didn't say anything. Boring.
Alright, I should act mature and smart and intelligent. Boring.
Mind games. Boring.
MS Excel, Outlook, Word. Boring.
Google. Boring.
Apple. Boring.
Pears and oranges. Boring.
Crib about how bored and bored I am. Boring.
Life is boring. No rephrase- my life is boring. I am boring.
Dull. Dull. Dull.
I don't want to stay in. I don't want to go out.
I don't want to meet friends. Everyone is boring. All talk is boring. All coffee shops are boring.
All break-ups are boring. All new romances are boring.
This weather is boring. So much for being as fickle as weather. Global warming changes climatic patterns and alters English language similies. Boring.
Pigeon fight in the balcony. Frantic flapping of wings. Feathers flying. No blood. Boring.
Wishes and dreams. Boring.
Memories. Boring.
Read.Write.Eat.Sing.Dance.Drink.Dope.Sleep.Shop.Talk.Think.Run.Walk.Sit......everything is boring.

I googled "bored". I am obsessed, nay high on 'googling' yes.
A Dennis Prager says: "I am bored generally means I am boring".

I had beer served in a teapot on Sunday. Brown china tea cups followed. Momentary lapse of boredom.
But beer ain't my cup of tea.

Redemption?Rescue?None.....Boring.

    if by "this' you mean the post, well then, it was NOT meant to be pretty. Or ugly, for that matter.
    That would be Boring :/

    so much rides on the exact implications and meanings and hints contained within the word "this"...am fascinated now. it could be an intriguing idea to follow through.
    Drat! Am already bored of "this". :(

    Well--perceptions are key--if everything is boring a new perception needs to be acquired.

    This post: definitely NOT boring. But like Jenn said, if everything is truly being perceived as boring, it's time to look for a new point of view.
