I agree with macrom. They're only boring if you let them be. Even behind the most boring of applications can be very exciting and elegant engineering, such as a sophisticated and highly portable framework API that you hand wrote, etc...make it fun by challenging yourself to write better code with each project.
Challenge yourself to write faster more stable code along with quicker development time. Don't worry about the gory boring business rules and details of the application itself, concentrate on the engineering.
That's what I do, anyhow.

Well, it's the size of my dad's fingertip then. :) He has worked in a steel factory all his life, his fingers are like big sausages.
