IM BORED! (june 11)

So I came home from work today around 4:30p and quickly realized I was bored. I did not bring many books here with me but there are only so many books I can read before I get tired of reading. I brought some DVDs but for those who know me, I hate watching TV and there’s only so much of that I can take before I get tired of movies/television. I have my music on my computer/portable hard drive but there is only so much music you can listen to without doing anything else, or even while doing something else (i.e. reading) before you get sick of listening to the same songs because sometimes you’re not in the mood for certain types. There’s only so much solitaire and minesweeper you can play before you get tired of that. See, this is why I will not retire anytime soon because I prefer an active lifestyle. I prefer to be out and about doing something, seeing something, working on something…SOMETHING! I feel even more constricted here because I do not have internet at the house, my cell phone will cost me an arm and a leg to use and I only have one calling card, I don’t have a car and it gets dark here quickly (think 6p daily) so I cannot just go outside alone. Moreover, I am in a foreign country and do not know my way around nor do I know how safe the area really is so I would not want to roam by myself anyways. Taxis are quite cheap so I may ask my roommate if she wants to go into the city tomorrow after work just to see what’s out there and available for us. I noticed a Curves gym right up the road and I may try to get a membership there but the only thing with that, we are moving in about two weeks so then it won’t be right up the road and will then cost more to get to from our downtown apartment. Maybe I can just workout daily without getting a membership. AAHHH!!
