How Blogging Can Kill You Slowly
Sent from my iPhone
I spent all morning crafting a post for The EHR/EMR Show. This pic shows how many steps I took, after taking Max for a walk, and the post midday time: 1475. For a 10,000 step daily goal, this should be more like 4-6,000 by 2 PM.
Just before the walk: 104 steps. As in, 1% of what the daily healthy total should be.
Gahhh.
Not helped by working until 5 AM, on...the same blog post. Got up in a haze, quaffed some apple cider (sugar water), and had a bowl of cereal before coming to my senses and having some proteinaceous eggs and ham.
So. Poor sleep, poor food choices, and no exercise. Waiting for perfect isn't just a FAIL; it's a lifesuck of the highest order.
Ever noticed how when you blog, you can't do anything else? See the plaintive look on Max's face? Family suffers, too.
Semi pro posts...maybe deserve careful crafting, links, proofing, nice images from iStockphoto. But those take me several hours.
My utilitarian medical training is starting to reassert itself. Life is too short, to not be living.
