hmmmmm...your boredom analogies are kind of like the saying " I don't want to be pacified, I want to be satisfied."

I prevented myself from being bored tonight. I spent the last um.....many hours, making Valentimes Day cards with a lady from church and my sister! :-) I have no one to give the cards to but I have them. Maybe one day I'll find them useful....... :-)

I really enjoy and appreciate your blog, and I enjoyed this post in particular. I am one of those people who tends to spend a lot of time surfing the web instead of being productive, so I will be sure to keep your advice in mind next time I'm bored.

Thanks for keeping me thinking. =)

Hi! I’ve been hearing a lot about you guys and your blog for a long time, so I decided to check it out. And I'm really impressed! From the little I've read on here so far it seems like a really great place for teens. Thanks for being an inspiration! :)

The article was wonderful!

On a side note, in Firefox, the recent posts say they have 0 comments, when in fact they have many. I don't know what's causing that, just thought I'd point it out.

Thanks for this. Being in a 3rd wold country (Huaraz, Peru) I am often confronted with boredom. It is a small town here, and there are few places to go. My sister and I often hang out together, but it sometimes gets tiring. Thanks for the encouragment! You guys have earned the respect of my dad who is a firm believer in all you guys are working for. He is rooting for you and so is my family! Keep going!!!!
