For example, I'm currently at the place I'm interning at but I've been just sitting for over an hour with nothing to do, I have my Kindle in my bag but I don't feel like reading. I've been taking my Kindle everyday with me but I haven't yet touched it.

Find a good trashy thriller and blaze through it

I've been battling the same problem for more than a month now. I really hate it.
