I'm a student, and spent 2 years working out every morning at a gym at school. University is about 1.5 hour commute from home, so I can't leave my school books at home, and pick'em up after the workout. I'd have my gym bag, and in it would have all my gym stuff, my school books, and 2-4 meals/snacks (this is when I was eating 5-6 times a day). With a water bottle, and anything else I might need for the day, I started developing neck pains from having to carry the bag everyday from 8am till 11pm between buildings on campus, and public transit. OTHERWISE, I wholly agree :D (Now that I'll be commuting to school, I'll have my bag in my car at all times, so I won't have excuses (except school)) I agree with every point you’re making (subtly), except I do believe that #9 is somewhat valid.

He smiled back at me and pulled the covers up a bit. Then I said, "Well, are you just going to lie there and watch me suffer???"

Like, say you've been putting in 16- and 18-hour days at work (which is probably the subject of another post) and are barely functional, if awake? Isn’t ‘being tired’ a reasonable excuse - sometimes?
