The Subjectivity of Boringness

-Sometimes I look around at the things my friends do, and think, "Geez, why do they put up with me? I'm so boring!" I mean, honestly, my friends spin fire, pose nude, fly planes, get rich, write books, write books for O'Reilly, do interesting pagan things, play musical instruments, sing, study exotic languages, have absurdly kinky sex, write RFCs, run conventions, appear on the radio, appear on television, act in plays, get tattoos, become vets, study slugs, visit Antarctica, climb mountains, et cetera, et cetera.

-Of course, my life only looks boring to me 'cause I'm used to it. I mean, at least two of the things on that list are on my resume. (Not the one I show to prospective employers, mind.) And I'm sure even the most interesting of my friends have days where they just sit around having a nosh and reading something fluffy. But I still have this urge to try and do everything, 'cause then I'd be interesting, and people would actually like me.

(Yes, I know you already like me, no need to comment to that effect. But thank you for the thought.)
