Hm, I had a pool once. Never again -- I felt like that's all I did was clean it, vacuum it, add chlorine tabs and clean the DE filter and destroy my lungs.
I also don't really like plants, or the outdoors. I'd much rather be inside in the A/C. Working on my own coding projects doesn't bother me, even after coding all day long.
Perhaps it's because I've been spending less time coding at work and more time managing...
