3 time hangs heavily on smb.'s hands
(time hangs heavily (или heavy) on smb.'s hands)While these acts and deeds were in progress in and out of the office of Sampson Brass, Richard Swiveller, being often left alone therein, began to find the time hang heavy on his hands. (Ch. Dickens, ‘The Old Curiosity Shop’, ch. VII) — Пока все вышеописанные дела и события происходили в стенах и за стенами конторы Самсона Брасса, Ричард Свивеллер, которому частенько случалось корпеть за своим столом в полном одиночестве, томился скукой, не зная, как убить время.
‘I could be content,’ went on Hurstwood, ‘if... I had you to go to, you for a companion. As it is, I simply move about from place to place without any satisfaction. Time hangs heavily on my hands.’ (Th. Dreiser, ‘Sister Carrie’, ch. XIII) — - Я был бы вполне доволен жизнью, - продолжал Герствуд, - если бы... мог приходить к вам, если бы я нашел в вас друга. Теперь же я просто хожу то в одно место, то в другое, не испытывая ни малейшего удовольствия. Я не знаю, чем мне заполнить мой досуг.
