About: I'm awesome.

    This is a list of things to do when you are bored, When there is nothing on TV, or no work to be done, when you are trapped at home with nothing to do. I will be adding to this when ever I find something so keep checking back.

Step 1: Play Computer Games

    You can always play computer games from awesome websites like addictinggames.com. ( I do not work for, have a membership, or anything like that with addictinggames.com. I just really enjoy that site) They always have fun games.

Step 3: Swim

    You can swim. If you have a backyard pool you can invite the neighbor, If not just go to a local pool.
    If you have 4 people you can have chicken fights where on person gets on anothers shoulders and anothe gets on the other persons shoulders and they try to push you off the persons shoulders.
    You can play "Dibble-Dabble". There are many different ways to play it, but this is my version. You get a wooden golf tee and one person swims to the bottom of the pool and drops it in. and then quickly swims out. Then when you see it float up you yell "Dibble-Dabble" and jump in for it. The first person to get it wins and gets to drop it at the bottom.
