    Get a dog. It makes this so much more enjoyable. Sharing it with a little ball of excitement.

      Cats work well too. You go for a walk to get away from them

        Instead of leaving and physically exercising, is it acceptable to shout incoherently back at the cats?

          When one keeps meowing and you ask them loudly what they want 🙁

        My neighbor used to walk his cat on a leash to stay active in both of their old age. It used to be cute to watch the snow white cat just walking around with his harness, having the time of his life.

        Cats shouldn’t be left to roam free outdoors.

      This kind of happened to me. My wife always walked the dogs but she started a new job so I took over. My mental health has been so much better it’s crazy. And I sleep through the night now too.

      I got a girlfriend who has a dog, so mission accomplished in a roundabout way

    I’m just a grumpy person lol. I’m grumpier without my walk so if I’m gonna be grumpy anyways, at least my physical health is a bonus.

      It’s one of those things that’s hard to get in the habit of, but it does wonders for your general wellbeing.

        I started doing it for my dog but with the added bonus of it also being good for me. Then I started losing weight even though I didn’t change anything else. I just stopped being a couch potato for 15 min twice a day. Who knew it was that easy?

      Try pushing through a week or two and you’ll start to notice the good parts of it. And don’t forget you’re everyone else’s NPC as well.

          I get that. I have to do something while I do it. Walking is ok, but the real trick is biking. It’s good for the body and brain like walking but stimulating enough to let me listen to a book in peace

      You know you can bring the Internet outside with you.

      God I wish I felt like that. I’m more like desperately trying to find anything on the internet or on TV that is actually fun and interesting anymore.

      Would love to have that feeling of excitement again. I remember being really excited about new computer games growing up… Every game was so fun to play.

      Honestly, how much TV can someone watch before it’s just a blur of all same same but different movies, series and whatnot?

      Everyone is different though, for example I can’t for the life of me watch any series to completion. Sometimes not even the first episode. But I can lose hours trawling through all I can find on Sphagnum moss.

    I multitask and do Duolingo at the same time.

    I’m a slave to exercise and that green bird.

    It doesn’t help that it’s one of those thing where you don’t notice it working, if it works at all
