I have been really bored lately. No men, no drama, no play, all this makes for a dull, dull day. People always like to imply if you are bored, then it might be because you are boring. Certainly I could stay up late at night reading National Geographic or French novels or even watching the news so I could be prepared to make interesting conversation on a chosen topic. What can I say? I don't. I've watched a lot of good movies on netflix lately but that's about it.
I need stimulation. Not from a book or a movie but from interaction in the three dimensional world. The good news is its making me more determined than ever to get the hell outta here. My friend is right, its just too nice out here in California, esp the Bay Area. We are lulling ourselves to sleep with all this comfort and convenience. Its the effin' Island of the Lotus Eaters out here!

Boredom is better than suffering. And motion is better than boredom and stasis. I'm not sure whether relocation will make your life more interesting (S.F. has much in its favor),but it will certainly sate you wanderlust genes.
Still, it all makes sense. If your professional life becomes humdrum, then suddenly the weekend can seem like work. You have a mix of fire and air to your soul that yearns for some kindling. Sometimes such fuel can be hard to come by in a city rife with forest fires. :)
