free space, lifestyle choice
So I’ve been thinking. I freed up a fair lot of space in my room, as I said.
I’ve been itching for a recliner, which is a pretty optimal place to do reading and such (which is why I want it, I haven’t had a place I could sit comfortably and read or play console games in a long time … always compromising with the couch or my bed or my desk chair).
But, I realized that there’s another potential good use for that space. Instead of making the commitment to sit around, I could get a stationary bike, and restrict myself to only watching anime and tv shows from the bike.
Basically it’d be a commitment to a somewhat less sedentary lifestyle, and probably 30-40 minutes a day more exercise than I get right now. While it’s not really that insanely much exercise, it’s a lot more than I currently get.
So, it’s a question of priorities. Which should I hold in higher esteem? My intellectual engagement (ie: reading more, coding more) or my physical health.
I’m sort of leaning toward the bike.
