Coast to Coast
L: Do you have a go-to cure for boredom?
F: I went to an event last night and there was a question of the day. The question was: Which vice would you like to give up for 30 days? I wrote feeling bored. Lately I have gotten into the habit of bordem. I think it is all a state of mind – a perspective. Usually, I do something I have never done before to rid myself of the habit.
L: Will you be doing any cooking for Thanksgiving with Albert’s family?
F: I am so excited to go back to Boulder. I always love to be there. I hope to help with some of the cooking, but I haven’t been assigned anything yet. More to come…
L: If you could only have one, would you rather have a bathtub or fireplace in your house/apt?
F: Now THAT is a question! If I could only have one and environmental resources we not at stake, I would certainly choose a bathtub. I love a good bath.
L: What has been the best part of your week so far?
F: On Thursday morning some of my friends and I went on a 7am hike in the mountains. It is always so nice to spend time with other women and really talk things out. I loved it.
L: Have you heard any good new music lately?
F. Nothing too new lately, however I have been listening a lot to the “Easy Beat” album by Dr. Dog. It is just forever giving.

If you allow it and term it differently, boredom opens a space to discover something new or savor something you already know.
