Bored, lonely... and cold

Ok, I'm bored. I'm sitting at work with virtually nothing to do until Thursday. Several of my colleagues are on holiday, and most of the others aren't in yet. It's BORING.
Nobody to talk to... not even on IM. Nobody for a nice chat, nobody for a bit of craig.
And for some reason, they set the air conditioning to August here... it's freezing outside and I constantly get cold air blown down on me. It's a miracle I can even hit the keys I'm shivering so much...

Just wanted to say that, really.
I suppose you could download episodes of Family Guy on your computer. If that show doesn't get rid of your boredom I don't know what will. :)

Too risky. I'm at work, remember? That network here is monitored.... :(

You know what stops you being bored (and goes really well with a side of lonely and cold)? Being depressed. Not that minor, weak stuff, but full on oh-God-why-do-I-continue-living, mega angst.
Currently, I'm working on a very nice case of it through the nihlism method. I'll show you an example:
I'm sort of tired, and am contemplating sleep, but I'd have to wake up in about 3 hours, so I really don't see that much of a point. In fact, there doesn't seem to be much point in ever going to sleep, as I'll just be worn down again in about 18 or so hours, and be back where I started.
So I won't sleep, but then I'm going to stay up and waste time on NS. Really, what is the point in being awake tonight, I'll never profit from it, so I might as well sleep and get through to morning quickly.
But, is speed all that desirable? I've only got a set period on Earth, so wouldn't pissing away 3 hours for expediency be a terrible waste?
And on. By my reckoning, I'll very soon hit the point where neither sleeping nor waking really matter in life, and then I can write a bunch of crappy poetry and try to kill myself. Is it fun? No, but it sure beats being bored.

Perhaps you have a co-worker you could throw wads of paper at?

Been there, done that and took a picture of it. And I managed to be bored all the while.
I can be very persistent with my boredom :D

No, that guy moved back to Germany a while back. We used to have paper ball fights with the French team a lot in those days.... *misty-eyed sigh
I think I'll go and see if a cup of tea will cheer me up.

You shouldn't lie about stuff like that. Smilie

GODDAMMIT!! You ruined it. A nihlist isn't missed, because they are meaningless. That someone would care enough to lie (or express genuine feeling) completely ruins the effect.
What's worse, you've gone and ruined the mood now. I can't depressed when I'm angry, and the inability to get depressed is making me more irritated.

Hee, I remember that. I thought it was kind of sad that I had seen a toumbleweed blowing around just a few weeks earlier.

You're misspelling my name again (I think it was you I got after over that before). I really should have seen that coming though, you should never tell the Internets about your angst, they'll always find a way to fuck everything up.

Well, I have the opposite here. Last week it was 17°C. Today it's 30°C, and because it's still 'spring', we're not allowed the air conditioners on.
I'm with you on the boring work front though. Finished my classes but not allowed to leave for another 90 minutes. dull dull dull.
Good news is that tomorrow is a holiday here!!

Of course it was me. That was back when I was stalking you. This purposeful misspelling of your name must mean I am infatuated with you again, so lock your doors and windows sweet cakes.

I'm assuming Clairol has a website where you can give yourself a 'virtual makeover' like a lot of other websites have. It's just more fun to give random people horrendous ones.
