If I have a book or computer I read or surf the Internet, otherwise I just think about how bored I am.

I always have a backpack or some other sort of bag with my media player and a book (and a stainless steel bottle of water). I hate to be bored, so I make sure I always have something to do.

Usually I complain about having to wait so long for whatever it is I'm waiting for, especially if it's at a doctor's office. I hate doctors.

I type meaningless posts into threads on this forum. My only real justification for wasting my time like that is that sometimes I get a good perspective of viewpoints from around the world.

I see stuff like that, and post it.

Yesterday I updated my geek code (http://www.geekcode.com/geek.html) [I'm not much of a geek I'm afraid].
I also thought about opening a Geek Code thread here, might do it later.

How do you get bored waiting for walking, or even just walking?

I play games, recently took up reading. Or just hang out.

I usually end up dling a movie, or watch a movie I already have to the 1k time... I have literally run out of things to check on the internet. I have things that I should be doing, but I procrastinate.

When there is no computer around? I drafts/brainstorm stories in my head. Think about computer game concepts and how to implement them. Compose little tunes and hum them to myself.. and try not to forget them later. Attempt and usually fail to come up with interesting economic theories. If applicable I think about how cute that girl across from me is.

I'll trade you a little bit of rain for the 'OMG I'm walking around in a bloody sauna' weather we get here. British weather looks pretty good to me. Yeah yeah, I know, the grass is always greener LOL. But green grass @ 30C on a hot day has to got beat brown dead grass @ 40C/90% humidity on a hot day.

If I`m waiting for a bus or in a waiting room with other people I would mostly try to start a conversation.

If I am on my own, I listen to music or read.

I know alot of people ...........
