Prompt: Bored Stiff

I've decided to go back to the start. This was the first prompt, long before I started myself.

Here's the story.

There’s no money. There is rain outside my window, and I am bored. Music isn't doing it for me and there's nothing on the TV. Everyone is at work. I'm bored.

Bored, bored, bored, bored, bored, bored, bored.

I'm so bored, if I continue the story, you'll be bored too.

I'd rather fly in the Millennium Falcon. This is a story. Let's do it.

An old heap of junk was parked outside my house. I have no idea what it was doing there. It was dirty and looks like it is falling apart. Curiosity has got the better of me, so I get on the ship.

Woah, it has just taken off, and I'm on board. It may look like a heap of old junk, but this thing really does fly well. Wow.

Let's see who's flying this thing. I hear a strange roar. Maybe I should hide. I actually go to meet the crew. Han Solo and Chewbacca. They are good guys. They even give me a chance to pilot this thing.

Amazing.

You see, there is never any need to be bored. As long as there are fantasies and stories. You can create whatever you want.

That is why I love to write.
