Boredom

So it's monday morning and I ask
'How was your weekend'
And the person says, ' boring, after studying for a about 5 hours, I had nothing else to do'


----
In a separate conversation with someone entirely different:
We are discussing growing old, and wanting to live long after retirement
and the person says
"Well, you don't really wanna live too long after retirement, there is nothing to do'

My mind is boggled by people who seem to need to be doing stuff. I love doing nothing.
for MY weekends, after studying for five hours, I go to the gym, grocery shopping, cleaning, cooking, and then DO NOTHING. And I love it.
I just sit there enjoying watching the hours pass, I let my brain relax because it's been working so hard all week. And it's the same nothing I do on my holidays. I can do it for weeks on end and after retirement I will do it for months on end. Except in nicer places, cause I would have saved up money and I will be able to go to stupidely exciting places for my retirement and do NOTHING.
A little bit of something but mostly nothing.
I want to meddle in other people's lives, I want to be able to get totally engrossed in the now and not feel compelled to plan for next week/year. And these are the joys I am looking forward to during retirement.. it'll be amazing..only 50 years to go!
