Day 3...

Gongoozler

This is my third day off work sick, mentally I don't know how to get through another day with so little to do, and barely being able to move.

I will take on board all suggestions please.

I've watched nearly all the remaining episodes of the programme I'm following,iI've read nearly all of boards, I've looked at all the jobs, I'm reading a book but I don't think I have the concentration to read the rest of it in one go.

All of boards? Including the hidden sections known only to the few?

Not the literal all, the figurative all. I would like access to the hidden forums, but I don't know who to ask

I finally finished the first series Monday. Onto the second now, and I'm trying to slow down so I don't completely run out of episodes. Also have to start on the second series of the fall.

Fringe? Battlestar G? The IT crowd?

Sci fi would really not be my thing, but yes I may give the IT crowd a go. Thanks


And because of the penguin post I am going to look at YouTube videos of hedgehogs, penguins, mice, and other such delights.

Fap for the day.

Don't stop until you've pulled the stomach out of yourself.

Then you really will be a lucky wánker

Wha? I regularly take days off to do absolutely nothing, infact I'm doing it right now! Wish I had your drive..

Attend a water charge protest or, failing that, set up one yourself.

Yeah but that's different. If I could get out and about, and do what I like, I'd be laughing. Well I wouldn't, as I'd still be bored after 3 days. I don't have drive at all. I think the age we live in has led me to have this feeling of having to be doing something all the time. Therefore, so little time not doing things is icky. If I could leave the house, I'd have loads of stuff done.

Forget knitting. You're sick, not prematurely aged. Reading is fine if you can concentrate while feeling unwell. TV seems to fill a gap for some but not my cup of tea all day. When you're sick it can be hard to spend any length of time on one activity and it can seem a long day. While down with flu a few years ago I just got the laptop out and started writing a story. I had no plan in mind, no idea what it would be about but many hours later I had an unfinished masterpiece. It's still unfinished and will have to wait until I'm sick again. It has been 10 years so I should have something to add. I used the exercise to remember characters through my life, sad events, funny moments, imagined events differently. Pure nonsense but I actually enjoyed it and it killed a couple of days.

Awh you should go back and finish it. Take a holiday day or two and do it.

I wouldn't be very creative at all, and wouldn't have much interest in writing. It would probably frustrate me more than anything.

I am looking at buying Christmas gifts online. One I've decided I want to call into the store and look at, preferably buy it instore too. But at least now I know what I'm getting. Another, it's a jersey for my nephew, so I need to just be sure it'll be the right size, so would also not like to buy online. 2nd nephew is next...

Holiday? I'm retired so haven't time to devote to it.😊

Good for you on the shopping brouse. You'll nhave Christmas all sorted before you know it. Sometimes you can use sick time to sort thoughts like presents out.
Get well soon!

You'd think that all right but in effect my days are filled with all the things I never had time for before. Gardening, walking, fishing, bird watching, home maintenance etc. Doing things at your own pace and for yourself takes up all the day. Sitting reading a book on quantum physics with a coffee right now and then it's out to the garage to varnish the garden furniture. Retirement is far from idle time.

I've just started watching Elementary. It's actually better than Sherlock. Kinda wish I had a sick day to finish season one. And if you haven't watched it before, The Good Wife is actually some of the best television out there.

Whatever you do, do not think "It's been years since Episode 1-3 if star wars came out. Maybe they weren't as bad as I remember. Maybe if I watch them I'll see them in a new light I'll actually have some kind of appreciation for them"

Just don't

I do that whenever I'm bored in work. We just sit there laughing at people face slapping the pavement.

I wouldn't watch star wars (again) if you paid me.

I've to get to the IT crowd first god damn it. The Good Wife, I never really took to.

I have a small - medium book lined up. It's not a story though, so it makes it hard to keep reading.

Yeah it is hilarious to watch people do stupid things. It's more entertaining to watch animals to funny things though. Maybe it's time you switched

I'm being responsible, and bearing in mind that I may have to go to work tomorrow, so trying to keep my sleep cycle somewhat ok. But such a good idea.

Awh that's so nice.

You find it relaxing to do? My relaxing thing is colouring in. Don't care who knows it. I like to colour in pictures!

Give BSG a try you forget you're watching a sci-fi such is the quality of the writing, characters and the story, themes straight out of the real world the acting, unreal music which would win Oscars if it were in a film series and tension too (start with the 3 hour mini-series pilot) it's a relatively short show too, other 2 (Fringe and It Crowd) are great. People who don't have a fondness for sci-fi tend to love it more, it's all about the characters and their will to survive, think of it as Band of Brothers meets the West Wing just happening to take place in space. A hopeful and depressing show.

I really appreciate you taking the time to write that out, but I am, to put it nicely, opposed to sci fi. I couldn't sit through a programme like that. But thanks.

I haven't even gotten to the IT crowd yet. So much happening on boards. I think I'll throw on an episode now.
