Bored?!?!?

I am thoroughly, thoroughly bored. I don't understand it. This should be a technical impossibility. I've been sitting on the net for the last 4 hours, and despite the numerous websites I own and need to update, the increasingly terrifying number of blogs I read, the impressive list of message boards I'm a member of and have forgotten the password to, and the mailing lists that send me mb after mb of fic and gabber every day, I am brain-numbingly bored. I have several programming languages I'm in the middle of learning that I should read up on, I have various rec lists I'm supposed to be working through, lots of games sites bookmarked, and over 12 close friends on msn online. There is nothing, in the vast expanse of hyperspace that I can bring myself to make a serious effort with tonight. And all those things I wanted to talk about yesterday? They all seem rather meaningless and, yes, boring right now.

I sat down to a movie marathon last night. I suddenly got the urge to sit and watch all the movies that make me cry. Well, not all the movies that have ever made me cry, obviously, I'd be here until I dropped dead of a brain tumour, but the romance sap ones at least. So I lined up Pearl Harbour, Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon, and a whole load of others, and then I started off with Moulin Rouge. I got about half an hour in, and I just gave up on it. It just all seemed rather pointless watching it, I'm feeling very detached. So I sat down and tried to read some fic, clear my backlog a little, failed miserbly there too. I did manage to start an Aragorn sketch, and contemplate trying to do a copy of one of the maps of Gondor, but I basically just went to bed early. It feels strange. I can't remember the last time I went to bed early.

Oh, and I changed my wallpaper. Big wow.
