Boredom Ninja

I’m soooooooo bored!

My parent used to tell me only boring people get bored. This slight truism gets stuck in my head whenever boredom strikes. Am I boring? Maybe, sometimes.

But in my defense there are times that nothing sounds good, I don’t have my book with me, nothing on Netflix looks good, I’m sick to death of Hulu, I have no interest in Pinterest (see what I did there?), even YouTube videos aren’t cutting it.

I have been struck by boredom.

 Silent, deadly, smothering boredom (apparently boredom is a ninja).

Books and Writing are my only defense against this sneaky slayer of excitement.

Since I don’t have my book with me, but I do have pen and paper, I shall defend myself with…WRITING PROMPTS!

TAKE THAT BOREDOM NINJA!
