I have a very high threshold of boredom. I people watch and let my mind wander. The other day I riding the T (Boston subway) to work while watching the guy across from me try to pretend that he wasn't looking at my boobs.

....or (lately) listen to one of Bill Bryson's books on tape (SD card, in my case... whatever).

I read also. Everywhere. I always have books, magazines, or newspaper in my car. My back seat looks like the inside of a Boston Public Library bookdrop. On road trips I enjoy the "Great Courses" DVDs or CDs. I listen to music. NPR is one of my best friends.

I'm a people watcher. My Sig other and I were recently stuck waiting for a meeting on a university campus and were noticing how the students (especially the coeds) seem to be noticeably "heftier" now than when we were in school. He in the mid '80s and I in the mid '90s. Any other older TFPers notice that trend? Maybe just my imagination. Not wanting to threadjack.
