that's what i was always told. *peeps around corner*
My mother used to say, "Only boring people get bored," every single time we complained of boredom. It was a pretty good method of shutting up three whiny pre-schoolers! In fact, to this day I literally never refer to boredom (I do, however, whine about pretty much everything else--not my best quality). Even hearing the words makes me uncomfortable.
Mama was pretty darn good at training her monkeys.

Mark, as if you needed another lecturing mother in your life, mine would bark "Read a book! Go outside! Take a walk!"
