Ball So Hard

8am-5pm, 5 days a week... Work, workout, eat, sleep, and repeat. Sound all too familliar? In the mundane weekday routine I try to spice things up at work... keep the mood light... crack a few jokes... just have a little fun every now and then. Most of the time that means a rocking out to my Pandora TLC station or wandering around from cube to cube for some chit chatting. I work hard, get my work done, help others, and do my best not to bug others while they're hard at work, but I literally cannot sit in one spot all day staring at a computer screen and talking to strangers. I will go bonkers. Straight up bonk-to-the-ers!

So, because going bonkers is not an option I recently decided that while I'm stuck at my desk (making that money flow) I might as well make it a little more interesting by sitting on a big ass silver workout ball. That's right. I'm sitting on a ball. The main purpose of getting this ball was to go from hunchback of Notre Dame to phenomenal posture. I've heard good things about sitting on a ball... good for your abs, posture, etc., but what I didn't hear is how much fun it can be when combined with Pandora radio. Bounce wit it, lean wit it, rock wit it... and I do.

Not going to lie, my back was hurting for the first few days and I've caught myself leaning on my desk a few too many times, but overall it was a great purchase. I've gotten many questions, weird stares, and plenty of laughs, but I'm not going to give up the ballin'... at least not until I wipe out, which has not happened... yet! Surprised if I do say so myself. There will absolutely be a blog post dedicated to my future ball wipeout because it's 110% sure to happen. Fingers crossed there are no serious injuries, and more importantly, that no one sees it go down.
