I am so fucking bored

BORED. Absolutely fuck all to do. Sick of watching shit on telly, reading, cooking. Sick of going for a fucking walk, I might go whole hog and turn left at the end of that road instead of turning right just for a change, that's the big news here today. The cat shit on the carpet this morning at least cleaning it up gave me something new to do. I want to go to a theme park, I want to go to London for the day, I want to go to the pub, take my Mum out for lunch, get smashed in a beer garden with my mates. Haven't seen the fuckers for months. Go on that luxury solo trip I treated myself to last year that never happened. Just me, my ipod, a massive glass of alcohol and a pool. Instead I'm stuck at home every bastard day driving myself mad with overthinking because there's nothing to distract me. Get me on a fucking plane away from this bullshit. Rant over!!

I FEEL YOU SO MUCH !!!!

Campervan69 · 16/01/2021 12:14

I'm with you 💯

Destinysdaughter · 16/01/2021 12:15

Me too!!

lgalb5 · 16/01/2021 12:15

Ah SAME..so damn relentless

supercee · 16/01/2021 12:18

Yes yes yes. Solo travel gives me so much joy. I've already scrapped alcohol and major carbs, I feel I have nothing left!

I'm sat here thinking what can I do today - erm fuck all! Also cursing all those who have partners and children moaning their head's off. I can totally empathise that it might be hard for you but beneath it all at least be grateful that you have loved ones/company around you! Being single through this is shit.

Also cursing the 'friends' who share mental health memes on insta about checking in on folk etc etc when they don't practice what they preach. Gives me a laugh at least!

Aloamilk · 16/01/2021 12:21

Omg the memes 🤦

WhateverTheySay · 16/01/2021 12:24

I keep torturing myself with the expedia app! ⛱

I've been looking at Paris hotels for end of March which I know isn't going to happen but I'm just giving my mind a treat.

dementedma · 16/01/2021 12:26

Dear God I could have written this. Lying on my bed waiting for bedtime so I can lie IN my bed. That' s the big excitement for today.
And no, I dont want to go for a fucking walk, or learn a new language, or bake a sodding cake.
Life is so fucking shit right now.

AdditionalCharacter · 16/01/2021 12:27

I'm with you. I've been forced put into shielding so don't even have the joy of going to work.

I think I've completed Netflix.

Frazzlefrazle · 16/01/2021 12:28

I have been searching for holidays this morning too...

Just a little bit of escapism.

WhoLettheCatOut · 16/01/2021 12:29

Me too!!! I have loads I can do, cleaning and cooking etc but I'm so bloody fed up of it I can't be bothered any more! We've a lovely big house and garden but I'm still stir crazy.

WhateverTheySay · 16/01/2021 12:30

I'm watching videos on YouTube of planes taking off that's how fucking desperate I've become. The good thing is I'm so fed up my appetite has up and vanished like a fart in the wind, I've lost 10lbs since the end of November so hopefully by the time I bother getting dressed again I'll be dusting down the old size 10s 👊 fantastic. Might even meet someone and have a good old Easter shag!

Aaahhh

I am so fucking bored
InsufferableLKIA · 16/01/2021 12:31

Yep. Yep yep yep. And dealing with my incredibly bored children is shit too. It’s all shit. EVERYTHING IS SHIT

Nancylovesthecock · 16/01/2021 12:31

Same here. I've even stared to watch things I would never have before and I can feel my IQ dropping with every minute. Masked singer, married at first sight, love Island type crap for just something to do.

I need some new books but I don't feel like I have the energy to read. It's not having money to spend, it's having freedom of choice and not having to fucking worry about being close to someone in the arsehole supermarket and every outing not being a huge inconvenience.

lollipoprainbow · 16/01/2021 12:31

Feel exactly the same today so so bored and the weather is shit too. The highlight will be changing the sofas round in my front room.

MrsXx4 · 16/01/2021 12:32

I feel you!

I actually left going to post my letters til the last moment yesterday as I wanted something to look forward to all day! Then I walked slowly so it wouldn’t be over!

GravityFalls · 16/01/2021 12:33

DP have started a weird routine of “planning” our weekend - like “I have to take the kids to a party at soft play, so we’ll go round the shops afterwards - do you want to meet us for lunch somewhere? Then we’ll check out the museum or go to the cinema” etc. Just the parallel, real life we’re leading in a different universe somewhere!

mrsrobin · 16/01/2021 12:35

Me too, that beach looks lovely. A feel exactly the same - just all so DULL. And I love walking!

Glenorma · 16/01/2021 12:39

I’m even more fucking bored. I’d love to read and watch telly! Instead I have to entertain a two year old, play trains and colour in and learn the alphabet. So boring, I live for bedtime when I can watch the telly.

lentilsforlunch · 16/01/2021 12:39

I might turn left instead of right

That gave me a laugh thanks OP!!

My life isn't really that interesting under normal circumstances but am craving some novelty

This made me laugh! I'm with you. I even miss the disgusting tube sometimes... Well done on your weight loss!
gingeristhenewblack43 · 16/01/2021 12:47

@MrsXx4 that has proper tickled me about leaving posting your letters until later in the day so you had something to look forward to 😂

I feel the same, I'm getting my vaccine later today (front line worker) so excited to have something to look forward to all day!

CheltenhamLady · 16/01/2021 12:52

Me too, we are currently absolutely torturing ourselves with Place in the Sun, and almost every other travel show going.

The excitement of the day really is taking a different turn on a street close to home. Can't even get in the car now and drive anywhere rural.
