even though even normal flying is never going to be boring!
CaptainEagle, now you're really showing your inexperience. Normal flying is often boring - a common truism is that flying is hours of boredom interspersed with seconds of stark terror. The smart ones, the ones who become old pilots, don't try to liven things up, they'll eventually become lively enough naturally. See the thread on sleeping if you doubt me. Routine flights are exciting only to the very new pilots, and the novelty will wear off. Keep it as boring as possible for as long as possible, & you'll likely survive. Extra stimulation can be fatal, to the career if not to the corpus
