Keep your head up and your hands busy

Ive always thought that was a good idea. Idleness is somewhat of a pet-peeve of mine. I say 'somewhat' because I don't think pet-peeve is the right word, but its the closest i've got right now.

I have a hard time doing nothing. Even when i'm on the phone, or watching TV, I am doing something with my hands - knitting, doodling, taking notes. Idle hands are the devils playground, they say, so I guess i'm doing alright! I have a hard time watching other people do nothing as well. it makes me want to give them something to do. I mean, by all means, go do nothing, but go do it where i cant see you!

The obvious exception for this is the beach, where sitting and watching is acceptable.
