I'm bored.

[bigwillq]

Ask me something. Tell me something. Make me laugh. Tell a joke. Stop in to say hi. Something. Anybody. Please?
I usually don't beg, but I am really bored at work and I still have a few more hours to go.

I am really tired, and sweaty, from driving around all day (I-95 was a total mess), and being out covering this Little League game. I am sleepy but I am going to grab some drinks later. So, that's what's up with me.

What is up with you guys?

:) :hi:

[malta blue]

1. hi there....

I'm bored too :P

Mr MB is cooking dinner though and I am also starving. We're having a grilled vegetable napoleon, pasta and grilled chicken pesto sausages :9

I spent most of the day driving around too, but that was so that I could be in the AC - it's really hot here today and we don't have AC at home.

Do you have plans for after work?

[bigwillq]

4. The food sounds yummy!

:)


I plan on catching up with some friends at this bar, it's one of the dude's birthday.

[terrya]

2. Hey!

I'm not doing much right now...just had dinner (pizza from Gino's down the street). Debating about going to see what might be available at the video store..

:hi:

[bigwillq]

7. Go check out a movie.

See what they have. I love watching movies. :) :hi:

[terrya]

11. I was in GD a little while ago and I just had this desire to spend money on a movie.

:-)

:hi:

[bigwillq]

12. All that from being in GD!?!?!?

:shrug: :P ;) :)

[skygazer]

3. I'm avoiding my homework

And waiting for a call from my daughter. I'd tell you a joke but I can never remember them properly, so they're never funny. The only one I can ever remember is the one that goes -

If April showers bring May flowers, what do May flowers bring?







































Pilgrims! :P

(my daughter learned that one in about 3rd grade. :blush: )

[bigwillq]

8. That's a silly one.

LOL! :rofl:

Is this a random call from daughter or does she have important news?

[CaliforniaPeggy]

5. My dear bigwillq!

Aw, sweetie!

I am sorry you're bored...

I've had a pretty decent day, considering...

Khash's mom called and I helped her figure out some more DU stuff...

Luckily, he had an account on her computer, and he hadn't logged off, so she can access it...

I told her what a cool lady she is, and how glad I am we are becoming friends...

I just wish it could have been under different circumstances...


I hope my little story helps!

:hug:

[bigwillq]

9. That's good for his mom, anyways.

And it's very nice of you helping her out during this difficult time. :hug:

[auntAgonist]

6. I'm bored too

:(

[bigwillq]

10. It must be the day.

:hug:

It sucks to be bored, esp. at work. I just want to get the hell out of here.

[Ysabel]

But thanks for posting. I will check it out when I get home.

[Breeze54]

14. Here you go...It's fun!

What Breed of Liberal Are You?--- 7 questions. ;)
http://www.fightconservatives.com/Inside-the-Book/What-Breed-of-Liberal-Are-You.html

[bigwillq]

16. New Left Hipster

You are a New Left Hipster, also known as a MoveOn.org liberal, a Netroots activist, or a Daily Show fanatic. You believe that if we really want to defend American values, conservatives must be exposed, mocked, and assailed for every fanatical, puritanical, warmongering, Constitution-shredding ideal for which they stand.

[Breeze54]

22. I was the Anti-War liberal... go figure!

:P

[bigwillq]

24. Do you remember

what the little blurb said?

[Breeze54]

27. No but you can 'go back' and find it.

It's hard to answer those questions, I think. I fit all the scenario's! ;)

[ghostsofgiants]

17. I'm stuck at work for 70 more minutes. Grr.

I'm also bored, so I'm reading articles on Znet to pass the time when I'm not on calls.

[bigwillq]

18. Doesn't working suck?

I need to hit the Lottery. I will share. Promise. :) :hi:

I hope the rest of your night goes ok.

[ghostsofgiants]

21. This job definitely sucks.

I'm gonna start looking for a new job Monday.

[bigwillq]

23. I think I may too.

Seriously. I've about had it here at my current job. I just don't want to do it anymore but I have no idea what I want to do.

I say go for it. Start looking. Life is too short to be unhappy.

:hi:

[ghostsofgiants]

31. Yeah, I'm getting mighty sick of this job.

Between the horribly stupid customers, shitty management, bullshit policies, I'm done. I'm looking for a graphic design job. I've found three listings so far (two since my post about it earlier tonight, haha).

[bigwillq]

33. Good vibes to you.

On the job search. :)

[ghostsofgiants]

34. Thanks dude.

If they can get past my lack of professional training and recognize my madd design skillz, I should be okay. :P

[bigwillq]

35. Tap into the talent.

And you'll be ok.

[reyd reid reed]

19. Okay...here goes

"A couple of New Jersey hunters are out in the woods when one of them falls to the ground. He doesn't seem to be breathing; his eyes are rolled back in his head. The other guy whips out his cell phone and calls the emergency services. He gasps to the operator, 'My friend is dead! What can I do?' The operator, in a calm soothing voice says, 'Just take it easy. I can help. First, let's make sure he's dead.' There is a silence, then a shot is heard. The guy's voice comes back on the line. He says: 'OK, now what?'"

:hi:

[bigwillq]

20. That is awful.

:rofl:

:hi: How the hell have yoy been?

[reyd reid reed]

25. Isn't it awful?

Now...how is it that 1. You're actually bored on a Saturday (that's the day I have the most to do, what with stats and all), and 2. You've only got another hour? I'm here until probably midnight.

I've been pretty good...busy. How've you been?

[bigwillq]

26. We're really slow now.

Summer is like that here.

I covered a game at 2...well I left my house at 12:15 b/c the game was 45 minutes away but it took me 1 1/2 hours b.c of traffic. :mad:

So I figure my day started when I got in my car so I am only staying until 9.

I am ok. I am really getting sick of work though. I am really considering changing fields but I don't know what I want to do or where I want to go.

See, you turn 30 years old and you go through all these life changes. You begin to ponder what the hell else is out there, feel me?

[reyd reid reed]

30. I started pondering all that stuff

when I hit 25. By 30 I was chasing kids up and down stairs and I didn't have time to ponder much more than the spray paint the 2-year-old used to decorate the bathroom.

I know what you mean, though. I also know that you'll work it out. A lot of people are leaving the field, it seems. It's kinda sad and it's very scary.

[bigwillq]

32. The industry is in such flux.

It's all over the place.
I just don't really know if this is what I want to do anymore. We'll see how it works out.


Oh jeez. You have it so much tougher than me. I shouldn't even complain. Good luck with the spray paint! LOL! :P ;) :)

[reyd reid reed]

36. Meh...

s'okay. The 2-year-old in question is now in college so the spray paint was papered over a long time ago. These days I'm more likely to be rolling my eyes at his little brother (14 years old and in the throes of punk-hood...kid goes through more Rave in a week to put up his 'hawk than I use in 3 months. Yesterday I was on my way to work and passed him on his way home...carrying a drum set. Just shoot me now.)

It's just a phase. Right? Right?!?

:P

[bigwillq]

39. Right....

:think:

Jeez. Hairspray. I use to gell my hair all up...then I got sick of it and just shaved my head.

Drums. Wow. Loud.

LOL! Bless your heart.

[Breeze54]

[RT Atlanta]

38. Just checking in BigwillQ

I hope you're closer to the end of your workday/night now.

What's the weather like in your neck of the woods? It was in the mid 90s and extremely humid in the ATL today.

Have a good rest of the evening!

Cheers!

[bigwillq]

40. Thanks!

:hi:

I am leaving in 15 minutes. It is so hot and humid here in CT. I love the hot weather but not so much the humidity.

:hi:

[RT Atlanta]

42. My folks lived in New Canaan...

in the mid 90s (when I was in college) and I was surprised at how hot the summers were up there. Have safe travels home tonight. Cheers!

[bigwillq]

43. That's a nice area.

I was kind of down that way today for work. I had to cover a game in Stamford.

:hi:
