Using Computers is Manual Labor
So I haven't been blogging much lately because I've been spending much of my time in front of a computer working on a website for our department, so I've been avoiding the computer when I'm not working. Staring at the computer screen all day is really taking it's toll on me. Let me explain. Tonight, I decided I was going to have a relaxing night at home, but I wasn't going to be on the computer at all. My eyes have been bugging me the last couple of days and I know it's due to too much time in front of the computer, so...what to do. Well, if using the computer is out because of eye strain, so is TV and reading. So I play my guitar for awhile. This works for a little while, but thanks to too much time typing (along with those big ol' strings I mentioned a few posts back), my hands are kinda sore, so that doesn't last long. Ok, I'm in a musical mood, so I'll just play around on my new keyboard...but, oh, it's a MIDI keyboard, requiring me to plug it into my computer to work. Plus, the lessons I have are on the computer screen as well. We've been having trouble with our wireless router lately, so I decided to work on it, but that also requires staring at a computer screen. So far the only things I've found I can do are the dishes (which are so done) and vacuum, but the damn vacuum cleaner's broken. I can probably find instructions to fix it...with my computer.
