Help, I'm bored!

[WarKitty]

It's Saturday at the call center. I'm getting 20-30min between calls. I absolutely cannot leave my station. Internet isn't blocked, but a lot of things - especially online games - are. Image hosting and sharing is also blocked.

Someone entertain me or argue with me or something.

[lylsyly]

Okay. TAG, your it. Pick a subject.

I know! How's your weather? Here it is 80°, Mostly Cloudy, with a low of L 61° tonight. (South Florida)

[WarKitty]

I'm in maryland and it's a bit over 60 out right now. And extremely windy, looking out the window. Looks like we have a storm moving in. I hope it thunders tonight, I love thunder. After I get home though.

[lylsyly]

I've gotten a lot of people about half jealous online over the years. It can be 80 and I am on the beach on a Saturday in February. Of course, February is our coldest month and when a front comes in it could be 30 the next morning. back to norm within a day or two though.

[WarKitty]

I'm actually a northerner by preference. So I'm a little sad it's only in the 60's in November. I spent the last 5 years between michigan and upstate new york, where there would be 3 feet of snow on the ground by now.

Anyways, I'll be off for about an hour now - it's time for my lunch break (finally! Lunch at 2:45 is a little ridiculous).

[lylsyly]

Be here when you get back.

[WarKitty]

Apparently it is now starting to snow here.

[lylsyly]

That is something I don't miss. I hate cold, although I have experienced my share.

Colorado, England, Germany, Korea, Japan. Never ever could stand cold weather.

Maybe you could find a good ebook to read?

I was never fond of interruptions in my reading, to be honest. The calls come in kind of at random.

Ah yeah, if I had money I'd take up skiing.

Heat, now, heat is my enemy. Part of it is on principle. You can always put more clothes on. There's a limit to what they'll let you take off in public.

[lylsyly]

I'm the same way, when I get into a book, I don't want to put it down. Throw out the cat ;), lock the door, turn off the idiot box, and just read.

Depends on the cat. I have the perfect reading cat - what she wants to do is sit next to you and snuggle while you rub her ears.

[lylsyly]

I miss having a cat around. Can't right now. I have had some great ones over the years.

Yeah my girl is staying with a friend while I scrape together the money for an apartment of my own. Sad. But at least she's warm and gets her snuggles and brushies.

[lylsyly]

Hmm... Never woulda figured you for a cat lover, go figure :bigsillygrin:

Had a maine **** once, female named dusty, come home from work upset and here is this big ball of fur in my lap, licking my nose. mOnly time she exhibited that behavior was when I was upset. Course half the time they seem smarter than us anyway so ...

[WarKitty]

I'm guessing the censored word is "coon" there. Silly forum filter!

Yeah, mimi's what they call a "domestic longhair." Which is pretty much vet speak for longhaired cat of unknown breeding. She's an adult rescue so we really don't know her parentage, exact age, any of that.

[lylsyly]

yep, stupid forum filter. Dusty had to qualify for the best cat I ever had, roommate brings home a "rescue" great dane, cat "owns" the dog from the minute it sets foot in the house. Dang cat walks across the stove while I am cooking breakfast, dragging it's tail through the frying pan full of bacon, never let's out a peep, just spends 30 minutes licking her tail, most stoic thing I have ever seen, which is saying a lot because I spent 13 1/2 years in the Army and knew some really stoic guys.

[WarKitty]

Mimi was a challenge at first. She's not real keen on strangers. Or strange noises. Or thunderstorms. Or...you get the idea. She's one of those cats that takes a while to warm up to you.

Old roommate's cat, now...he thought the world existed to love him. Or for him to eat. I once had to hand back a student paper and apologize for the teeth marks on it due to him.

[lylsyly]

That's funny, I'm sorry, the cat ate your homework.

[WarKitty]

Ser Pounce-a-lot was nothing if not entertaining. And sometimes annoying. I swear that cat had ADHD.

Mimi begs for food, like most cats. Pouncy doesn't beg - he steals. He thinks it a fun game.

[lylsyly]

I gotta get ready to go to my crappy little parttime dishwashing/gofer gig.

Enjoyed chatting with you, have to do it again sometime.

Luck and hugs.

[WarKitty]

Do you still have access to TvTropes?

[DracoknightZero]

Why not start reading the IC games in progress on this site? I know thats what i am doing when i feel overly bored and need a story ^^;

[danzibr]

I actually came to this part of the forum because I was bored :P

[WarKitty]

Do you still have access to TvTropes?

I do, actually! I finally got bored with them though.

Play smite.

it is free and very time consuming.

I might point out that (1) I'm at work, which means games are blocked and (2) I'm at work, which means anything I play has to be interruptable at a moment's notice.
