Kayaking
I am not really an "outdoorsy" person. I do not get particularly excited about the prospect of driving four hours to visit a lake, mountain, waterfall, etc. and then turning around to drive four hours home again, as do several of my nature-loving, city-avoiding friends. I have been known to demand tea in the morning before agreeing to leave the campsite for a hike. But I do like to do things outside from time to time– to go look at interesting natural features, animals and birds– out of a general committment to experiencing the various interesting things the world has to offer. And so from time to time I appear to be a very outdoorsy sort of person, and return to work on Monday morning with extremely sore muscles from kayaking and strangely-shaped patches of burnt skin that I missed while applying sun block. Today would be one of those days.
you are cool

You return to work?
Maybe that’s why my adventuring keeps inhibiting my career development…

I love your blog, it’s very inspiring to me. Sometimes it’s just the boost I need to write another few lines of code, or as with today’s post, spend half an hour daydreaming about kayaking (when I really should be writing a few lines of code).
