Here are some suggestions on how to cure boredom:
 

n Have a staring contest with your reflection in the mirror (unfortunately, this
            is often a tie).
 

   Take a nap.
 

   If very desperate, do your homework.
 

  Write stuff for Aimée's Newsletter.
 

  Teach yourself to juggle.
 

  Run for fun.
 

  Yodel.
 

  See how many grapes you can fit in your mouth without choking.
 

  Invent a new sport.

  Compose a symphony (harder than it sounds).

  Eat until you pass out.
 

  Memorize lines from Monty Python and the Holy Grail.
 

  Answer the phone and speak in gibberish.
 

  Practice flying off your roof.
 

  Look outside:  Count the number of minivans that pass by.


  Try to make Miracle Grow out of chemicals found around the house.


  Stand outside an elementary school with an eyepatch on and see how many
           kids you can convince you are a pirate.
