I have nothing to do
ok... maybe 1/2 a sink of dishes, but that's all

the problem is, I don't have anywhere to go either, and no money to spend (not even for gasoline)

It's HOT outside.

I'm bored and lonely.

1. You want to help me upgrade this database?
That's what I'm doing today.
Yup.
Upgrading a database.
On a Saturday.

It sucks.

Why not see a movie? Who cares if they all suck. At least its air conditioned and you get to munch on popcorn!

6. I have a hard time sitting still in a movie theater
RLS.... I'm always afraid my jumpy legs will bother someone. I've got AC here... I suppose I could rent something.

8. And get some Jiffy pop too!
Or a snack of some sort.
You need a snack if you rent a movie!

2. I feel your pain
Even I am getting sick of watching day 423,083 of tennis. We are planning to go to Mr. DTBK's cousin's house for dinner later, but I think I'd rather stay home and watch yet more tennis! Oh, well.

3. But still, it's got to be better than being at work, right?
I am a tad "bored" myself. I took care of all my chores yesterday so I wouldn't have to leave the "compound" all weekend. I am not too lonely though due to my seven animals doing their best to keep me entertained.

4. You have a compound?
How many buildings?

My FIL suffers from compound syndrome. Thinks he's throwing up structure #7 now: the getaway cabin. It's only across the road, but hey it's a whole nother building!

:rofl:

7. Just three structures on 15 acres surrounded by barbed wire.
The wire really helps keep the riff-raff out. (Actually it used to keep cows in)

I'm jealous.

14. No cows at the moment.
They are on the agenda but I want to get all my debts paid off (including the mortgage) before I do anything else. That's why I am sitting at home doing nothing on a Saturday. Its cheap.

5. I'm going to take a walk outside
Luckily, it's not hot here. It's actually a nice autumn day, or at least feels like one. Sorry you're bored. :hi:

10. Sounds like building a compound is the best remedy for boredom.

15. Come over and cook with me
I'm making cauliflower soup and roast beets.

We can sit down to a nice lunch together. Afterwards watch a movie or play chess.

16. well, I'm a very good cook
when I get paid every other week, I go shopping and then cook up a storm and fill up my freezer.

I love beets

I'm terrible at chess, but a good movie works.
