The working weekend worked, but we got NO exercise

Our weekend was quite fruitful in terms of the work we accomplished.  Kelly had a makeup piano lesson on Saturday, so Christian and I hung out there while Lorena did some shopping and Kelly went to Mrs. Bruce’s house.  There is free wireless broadband now at both Borders and Barnes and Noble, so we were able to work on our computers to our hearts content.  Kelly caught up on her reading and drew some Betty Blonde comics.  Lorena shopped and cooked.  All we did was sit around all weekend.  The only time anyone went outside was when Christian mowed the lawn and he did that sitting down.  By the end of the weekend we were all a little bit snippy.  It serves us right, we really need to, no matter what, get off our duffs, get outside and get some exercise, even if it is only a walk around the neighborhood.

Christian wrote a Bash script that allows him to automatically download and install the Firefox hourly builds so he can run the absolute bleeding edge version of Firefox whenever he wants.  This has absolutely no meaning to normal people (me included, although some my argue that I be included in that category), but it is definitely has cachet amongst the nerd crowd.

    I agree, there’s definitely something to be said about getting some exercise out in the fresh air, especially when it’s so crisp this time of the year! My weekend sounds like it was very similar to all of yours except Saturday evening I went for a bike ride. I must say that is the only thing that kept me from getting “snippy” by the end of the weekend.

    Man, this is going to make me get out of my chair and get back to exercising. I hate it when people agree with me that I need more exercise.
