I’d be a Skinny Mommy by now if stress or typing actually burned significant amounts of calories. Having spent the entire morning battling with my feed reader, I’d just finished organizing various folders to pull in feeds that I read for my various blogs. The whole idea was to make my blog reading more efficient, more streamlined, leaving me a bit more time each day to, oh, maybe exercise?

And wouldn’t you know it, after three hours of updating everything — right at the very moment I was going to save my work and be done with it — something went wrong. Something horrible: all of my feeds disappeared. All of them!

Unlike, say, payroll software or other software designed by people who actually KNOW that data needs to be automatically backed up, my feed reader doesn’t do that. I’m screwed. I’ve lost everything. An entire morning’s work.

Needless to say, the whole experience got my heart rate going, but I’m guessing that doesn’t really count as exercise, does it?
