I'm so bored!!!  
So I've got this list of over 10,000 titles to check against the library catalogue before the next submission date (which is this Friday at the very latest) and all I'm doing is typing in the title, ticking the box if it's on the system, highlighting it if it's not.

I've been doing this pretty much non-stop for the past two weeks. I'm now scunnered with it. Completely and utterly.

The grade three job is supposed to either entail a degree of supervision or demonstrate a special aptitude for a particular skill. Apparently my special aptitude is to sit here and be bored out of my skull for weeks on end.

So, I have a challenge for you.

Something I can do in my head, a game, singing, anything, that will make me less bored! Help?

Well I can get you laughing/riled up/grateful it's 2004 if you like.

You'll love it;)

Have joined - but a mentally challenged monkey could probably have done it quicker!

I'm in the mood to a make a meal of all things today. I just put together some things to send to someone but the pack was missing a page. I thought perhaps I'd run out of copies of this page and had somehow managed to put the template page in the recycling bin during a semi-energetic tidy before lunch. Went through bin - couldn't find page. Gave up, sat down and immediately found the page. Great - but now where have I put the original stuff for sending?!

Found it! Put the papers on the floor behind my chair - nearly ran over it just a minute ago!

*They're all out to get me!!*

LOL! It's all part of one big conspiracy.

Got the email by the way - and yes, it kinda does make me look at the boring job in a whole new light...

Pretend each title is someone you don't like. Pretend you've got a sledgehammer. Each time you complete checking a title, imagine you're hitting that person with the sledgehammer.

Sledgehammers get awful heavy after the 5,000th title though...

So pretend you've got the strength to lift and swing it 10,000 times.

or that it's Olaf's troll hammer that Spike can't even budge but that somehow Xander can survive a direct hit to the head from...
