i seriously think most people who are bored are so BECAUSE they expect socializing and other people to make them unbored, instead of exploring and looking to find things that DON'T depend upon what anyone else does or doesn't do, to hold their interest and gratify them. i only get bored when circumstances/company prevernt me from emersing myself in doing the kinds of things, those specific kinds of creating and exploring, that most peraonaly gratify me. when my mind is prevented from immagineering type problem solving by the distractions of coercive social mundania, that is when, and just about only when, i ever get bored. of course i do get on here to run off at the keyboard. but these computer gizmos are things that people didn't have when i was born, and even just doing this, with no one to disrupt my clearity of thought, i get a little something out of. whether anyone ever notices and reguardless of how they notice, or not. =^^= .../\...
