Every time I tell people that I plan to retire young at 30/35 (or even earlier), I get this: Won't you be so bored?? + *appalled look*
For one, I am bored working. I don't see why work boredom doesn't count as real boredom. Anyway, I rather be bored doing nothing (or thinking of things to do) than be bored at work.
My dream job is to make myself happy. Well, it takes a lot, a lot of time. I'm terribly pessimistic and very highly strung. I need time to soothe my discomfort and fluff up my life (with lots of pillows and a hot mug of milo). It is a legitimate full time job.
I love weekday afternoon shopping, lazing in bed, having time to read... And yes, to placate and uhlala those people who have to work oh-so-hard.
I feel so acknowledged knowing that there are people our there like me. See here. It is on CNN. My dream kind of life is almost main stream...
I'm all for your "dream job"!
