Need exercise

I was a free man. Hungry, but free. I was reading the IT magazine once a week on a bench in The Park with all the excitement you could imagine.
And one day I got the job. I was the IT man in one very small company. First task - I was in charge of finding some piece of software (ERP) for my company.
But first of all, I was a programmer – so I cheated. I failed to find the right software because it wasn’t been born yet – “I” wanted to write that piece of code.
A couple of weeks later, I found myself a quiet room, I locked the door and happily started clamping on my keyboard.
A couple years later – the small company exploded into some kind of monster with a dozen of different activities ranging from garbage collection to home cinema equipment manufacturing and TV stations breeding. Yep, it was chalanging and fun for a while.
But I became too sedentary. I was too absorbed by my work to see anything else. I lost track of time and I got cut off from the big world around and from myself. I even forgot to look in the mirror. I am 120 kg now.
Scary. I was 65 the day when all this started.
Need exercise.
I’m sleepy and bored. I tried to go to ski but I was too fat for that – I just hurt my knee.
I need to exercise.
I have to learn to think again. I have to stop for a minute every morning on the road to my office and just take a look around. It should be something out there.
I started learning C# and some XP techniques – it is fun, but a little bit difficult to keep the rhythm - I could be too fat for any kind of extreme sports now. I could hurt my knee once again.
Need exercise.
I should find a quiet place and start my daily exercise all by myself.
Start from 5 minutes – maybe in a few months I could get into shape. I wouldn’t loose too much weight in a few months - but maybe I will start to love jogging.
This blog looks pretty damn private , and dark enough. Nobody would see me here.
So I'll start my daily jogging here.
