I beg to differ a little bit.
Letting your mind wander in order to allow ideas occur to it is not boredom.
I once read about Heidegger´s distinction of three levels of boredom.
Emptiness is one good point, on all three levels, the real existential boredom is pure despair though.
Boredom is by definition something unpleasant and exasperating. The mind is rebellious about getting so little input or because the input is insultingly cheap.
Good buy for now, have an interesting time !
