Gosh, I am so f'ng BORED. I've been having these overwhelming waves of boredom washing over me as of late. I feel as if I could crawl underneath this desk and take an extended nap... Zzzzz... I had "Columbus Day" <--(whateverrr) off, and didn't accomplish anything. I wanted to do laundry, but the laundry room was in use all day... went in at 10pm and it was STILL in use... Arrrgh!!! I finally gave up and packed it in for the evening. I was hoping that I wouldn't have to do it today, after work... but I really need to do laundry, which is my least favorite chore. Each floor in my building has one washer and one dryer, so it's a pain in the ass when you have to wait for someone else to do theirs. Usually it's free, but yesterday seemed to be THE laundry day. I wanted to have the shit DONE and over-with so that I could go home after work and relax. I wanted to do some collage pages for my manuscript and work on the cover of my book to be... but my lazy, procrastinating ass didn't even do THAT... and there is no excuse, because I had the day off... Anyway, did I mention how BOORED I am? I need to come up with new ways to amuse myself. Hmm... I could actually do some WORK. I just sat here listening to this older Black gentleman ramble on about how his grandfather is listed as an American Indian on his birth certificate (which the patron proceeded pulled out to show me), and he said that every research facility he's been to has said that the ethnicity was a mistake... and so now he's is all frustrated and can't seem to get over this genealogical researcher's hurdle. ... blah blah blah... Needless to say, his complaints were valid, I suppose. I felt sort of frustrated FOR him... I know that African American/Native American genealogy can be extremely difficult. I gave the man five free visits to our library and wished him good luck. This is the most exciting development that has transpired this morn.
