The "B" Word

Once upon a time, at a Bob Evans restaurant in upstate New York, friends and family were going out to celebrate a young girl's performance at her dance recital.  Laughing and lighthearted conversations consumed all around when suddenly someone said the "B" word -- "I'm BORED."

The young girl was yours truly, and the girl saying she was bored was my friend Rachel.  Now, I know that this is not a particularly horrific word, however if you knew my Nana you would be holding your breath as much as I was that night.  You see, there is never a reason for someone to be bored because you can always find something to do.  In my case, and my first and last offense of saying this word in front of her, I got to write the word "bored" and its definition from the dictionary over and over and over again.  Well, there was no dictionary at Bob Evans that night...but there were napkins and someone had a pen.  So what did Rachel get to write that night? Because she was bored, the offender was made to pen words for each letter of the alphabet on a white diner napkin.  See?  There really is always SOMETHING to do when you're bored.

So why have I started this blog?  My third in fact, not loving the ones I have written in the past. Well...I have found myself feeling much more on the bored side lately, which is insane considering I just graduated from college and started a full time job. However, not wanting to be a repeat offender, I have kept the fact that I am bored to myself and I now need to express the need to keep myself occupied.  This blog is my solution.

I am never sure what to write about so I decided to Google "Blog Ideas."  Pathetic! But necessary to keep this entertaining.  I'm hoping to take this blog more seriously than my failed ones, and relieve my boredom and keep myself from saying it out loud.  So here's my first goal:

I have found a list of 101 blog ideas...NO I will NOT be doing every single one of these ideas, not only because I'm using this as a starting point but also because some of these ideas just suck.

Look out for tomorrow, my first official day of blogging (I don't count my introduction, anyone can do that).  Topic:#10 Write inspirational/motivational post with famous quotes.

Yes, I'm not ashamed of the copy/paste method of getting my point across.  I like this idea because I think I should start out with something inspirational and motivating, at the very least for myself...

Cya :)
