Here is what I did this weekend:

3 loads of laundry
Swept all the bare floors
Scrubbed kitchen and 2 bathrooms
Dusted the house
Ran the dishwasher
Took care of the cats
Babysat a neighbor's 3 dogs
Went to church
Grocery shopped
Went to the gym

Oh..and I did attend the local university's spring football practice scrimmage...by myself.

I think I was in bed each night by 10PM.

I hope this doesn't come off as bragging

you are a wild man know1....wish i knew this earlier.



and it's not bragging - sharing your joy is always a good thing.


btw - men who clean, most especially who scrub kitchens and bathrooms, are VERY sexy. but that's another topic... :oops:

As much as I clean, I must be way up the list in terms of sexiness (only wish that were true )

it's a taste i've acquired with age.
and being the sexy english teacher who ALSO scrubs the floors?!
:shock:



let's just say....it cannot be politely discussed on an all-ages forum.
and one would never be bored with such a scenario.

Try volunteering in your community, you will meet people and help others at the same time

Call your local Red Cross chapter and find out becoming a volunteer for disaster relief
Call your mayor's or local councilman's office and find out about helping AIDS patients in your community

You are lucky that you don't know how to ride a bike. Ever since the day I learned how, my life has become insanely complicated. I mean, you need maps, schedules, a coordinated, strategic mindset for even getting around the block, AND a sense of balance. It's all a little much frankly.

Maybe try volunteering, working with pets, the elderly, terminally ill kids. When you do something for someone else it fills your heart and brings contentment. Also it helps you to appreciate just how blessed you are.

I'm not a good enough person to volunteer working with people, I couldn't handle it. Say what you will but some people are cut out for that sort work- and my hat is off to them- and some people aren't. I do environmental-type volunteerism occasionally, but honestly, working 7 days a week is not what I'm looking for. I'm trying to have some smidgen of fun of life, not spend 5 days a week trying to keep down the price and environmental impact of electricity and then another day or two crying over people and animals in tragic situations. Call me a horrible person but at least I am honest with myself. I also think my whole career is really "doing something for someone else"- my job benefits everyone, and I don't get any personal gain at all- every dime I make goes to pay back the student loans I took out to do the work in the first place.

excellent idea of course, but suggested and dismissed earlier.





eyed, you also need a pack of bike-riders who are at the EXACT fitness level as you, with the exact desires for what they want out of their bike rides or it just doesn't work.


who knew having fun was so complicated?
nike apparently just didn't know wtf they were talking about when they came up with that silly "just do it" ad campaign. :?

....figure out ways to do such things. also realize, most people aren't out doing things/having a crazy-ass time EVERY weekend.

I try, I try really hard, but without fail, it's friday night, and I haven't come up with anything.

I realize people aren't out having fun every weekend, but I have NO fun EVER pretty much. I'm either at work/gym or sitting on my couch with my mind racing. And as I said, I TRY to go out and hang out in my neighborhood, but I get bored just wandering around. Even when I make myself go out to eat or something, I always leave as soon as I'm finished eating, it goes by really fast.

Bob's awesome! I always have to bring a big ziplock bag of them when I travel. Buying a box really makes more sense lol

Well I'm glad you feel that way, I usually get made fun of when people find out I never learned how :oops: lol Managing not to fall when I'm just walking is enough, I don't need to add wheels to the mix!
