I'm sitting here, about to get off of work, and I'm completely exhausted. For the last seventeen hours, I've done very little more than type, eat a little food here and there and read incessantly.
What I don't really get is why that makes me so tired. It's not like I spent the day picking peppers or roofing a house. If I did that, I'd be bone tired, but I would have gotten some exercise in the process. This way, I'm tired, but that's about it. It's probably a big reason why most of the computer people that I know are either overweight or heading in that direction. I know that I've put on way more weight than I would like, and most of that is because I spend far too much time typing.
It's kind of like driving for hours. I'm going to be heading home soon. When I get there, I'm going to be wasted tired, and all that I will have done is driven my car for six, seven hours. Will I have gotten any exercise worth speaking of during that time? Nope. Will I have eaten bad food and drank a bunch of soda? Almost certainly.
And between my day job and this music gig, I'm not having as much time as I would like for working out. Guess I'll have to cut back on the day job....
