Boredom

Time to switch it up here on the blog. The book that I am going to review next is called Boredom: A Lively History by Peter Toohey. It is a very interesting book on something that is super painful. It uses a really interesting series of references including Emma and a various paintings that depict people being bored.

It also made me wonder about how often I get bored and why. I am constantly on my laptop or washing tv but I seem to be bored because I'm not stimulated. Somehow I feel as this should worry me... but it doesn't. Maybe that is what the book taught me. Boredom happens, but sometimes you just have to go with it.
