It is only boring if you have a restless mind that wants to constantly preoccupy itself with distractions and run away from the slightest discomfort instead of being here and now. With some ZEN focus any activity can be interesting when done with full awareness. Sorry couldn't resist. Carry on.
I also thought "someone needs to do some mindfulness meditation practice or something and learn how to deal with that" as well. People rarely want to hear about it though.
