English term or phrase: Boring bit
Lily liked ghost and horror films and she had quite a collection of pirated DVD’s. She selected one, dimmed the lights, turned the volume on the large-flat screen TV up and hugged a pillow to her chest, ready to hide behind it when things got scary.
As she lay on the couch, Lily planned her Sunday during the ‘boring bits’.
Sunday was always an inviolable day of rest, although she did have to do some studying.
