A Holiday, A Habit

I Didn’t Want to Look at My Computer During the Holiday, But I Did Anyway

Yesterday, I went to the park.
Today, I took a walk by the river.

It’s the National Day holiday, and honestly, I haven’t wanted to look at a computer at all.

My neck has been bothering me.
My eyes are tired, too.

For once, I just want to step away from the screen and enjoy a few days outside.

And yet, there’s something funny about me.

After spending the day outside, even when I come home feeling completely exhausted, I somehow end up sitting in front of my computer again.

And strangely enough, I don’t feel more tired.

I actually feel energized.

Maybe it’s because checking my website has quietly become part of my daily routine.

I open the analytics, check the traffic, see how many pages Google has indexed, and look at my keyword rankings.

I tell myself I’m just taking a quick look.

But before I know it, I’m already back in work mode.

I guess some habits don’t really take a holiday.
