December 18th, 2007

Ok, so I have been stuck in bed for over two weeks now, and while Lois and everybody is being really wonderful, I am board!

So, here are 34 things to keep you busy when stuck in bed!

  1. Catchup on your reading
  2. Surf the net
  3. Catchup on your newsfeeds
  4. Phone all your friends
  5. Cleanup your mailbox
  6. Download and play with virtual lego
  7. Arrange your MP3 collection and create new playlists
  8. Try to understand what the globs on your MRI scan actually mean
  9. Create lists of things to do when stuck in bed
  10. Check your e-mail about 100x per day in case anything interesting has happened since the last time you checked
  11. Change the colour scheme on your computer
  12. Figure out if downloading the 3gig installation for the trial version of Warcraft is really worth it

  31. Defrag your harddrive

    i wanted to thank u for this it was really made me laugh. I had ankle surgery last week and will be stuck in bed for another week and then stuck in the house for about another 4 week because of a cast. I’ve already done a lot of the things on ur list plus facebook stalk people (lol). my two favorite are googling everyone you know and looking up every medical procedure. So again, thanks for giving me a good laugh.

    Thanks Lynette. These things are very frustrating, and sometimes all you can do is to laugh at the situation.
