I almost always eat lunch at my desk. And I know I should get up and walk around more. I'd probably be more productive that way.

How are you lazy at work? I need coffee, by the way. Hope this makes sense.

Kevin  (ksprink) | 11469 comments i can be lazy at work.

but i need coffee too. that makes sense to me

Ditto what Kevin said. It's a good thing my office's network has blocked Facebook, or I'd never get anything done. But my bosses are cool with us spending some time on the Internet. Some people have smoke breaks. Others go online.

I'm worse at home, actually. I'm usually with my laptop in the LR, watching TV and responding to e-mails.

Of course, I'm always drinking coffee.

Heidi (heidihooo) | 10825 comments I like to eat away from my desk. However, during lunchbreaks, I've been known to shut my door, lock it, turn on some relaxing music, turn off the lights, set my alarm, and take a nap at my desk. Those are always awesome because at some point when my alarm goes off, I almost always feel disoriented - Where am I? What day is this? What time is it? :)

Gee Heidi, the last thing I would want to do is wake up from a nap and still be at work. It would be like starting the day all over again.

Oh, the disorientation only lasts for a few seconds. It's nice to wake like that because it means I got some good rest. And by the time I'm awake again, really awake, I feel refreshed and ready for the rest of the day (only a few more hours, typically, by then).

Glad it works for you Heidi. Leaving the building even if it is only for ten minutes usually helps me to finish the day.

Kevin  (ksprink) | 11469 comments leaving the building 10 minutes early helps me finish the day ;)

I usually have to lock up at the end of the day, except for the day of away games, then I leave early.

Kevin  (ksprink) | 11469 comments btw - on my lunch hour today i ran home and fixed two chicken/bean burrito's (not microwaved but actually fixed) then peeled and cut up potato's, washed carrots, cut up onions and put them all in a big pot with a roast for dinner tonight, did some dishes, checked the mail, fed the dog and checked on my son who is home alone sick (no one call Child Protection...he is 18)then back to work on my motorcycle. so i guess i am not lazy today.

Yes, my son plays football.


message 14: by Kevin (new)

Kevin  (ksprink) | 11469 comments what age is he? flag or tackle?


message 15: by [deleted user] (new)

Freshman in High School, he starts at Guard and Defensive Tackle for the frosh. He had a pick six last week, is was his first TD in a game ever.


message 16: by Kevin (new)

Kevin  (ksprink) | 11469 comments very cool. DT is a fun position. gotta learn the "swim" and "bull rush" moves

my youngest is 18 and a senior. offensive line. primarily center. at 5'10" 225 he is the smallest O Lineman we have. 5-1 so far this year


message 17: by [deleted user] (new)

5' 10" 185, and they are undefeated, as are the JV and Varsity teams.


message 18: by Kevin (new)

Kevin  (ksprink) | 11469 comments good size freshman. keep throwing the steaks and potato's to him. sounds like a great year for that school's football program


message 19: by [deleted user] (new)

He is actually the second smallest lineman, the center is smaller.

The food bill has gone up considerably, but he doesn't gain any weight.
