For $30 you can get an exercise ball and sit at your desk and bounce the pounds away. I did that for a while until I realized my ball wasn't holding air, and I was ending up typing with my hands up by my ears by the end of the day.
So then I went over to Big 5 Sporting Goods and asked them if they had one of those little plugs they could sell me so my ball wouldn't leak. The 20-something college drop-out looked at me like I was a total loser and said, "We don't carry parts. Then he turned his back on me and walked away. Oh. Excuuuuuse the heck out of me, JERK. I should never have come to a sporting goods store to buy a PART for one of my sporting goods. Maybe I just need to get a whole new ball, even though mine is perfectly good (except for that little plastic thing). Would that make you happy? Because that's what I'm all about. Spending money in your store so you can go out and get in your lime-green car, turn up the stereo, and cut people off all the way home to your sleazy apartment and four cats.
Uh . . . ahem. I guess maybe I have some unresolved issues there. Sorry. I'll go now. I like your chair.
