Things you can do instead of watching Google update

Man, you literally have to be nuts in your head to watch Google update. This thing now takes literally months. If you attempt to suspend your life for 180 or more days at one time because of something a third party is doing, then you don’t need a doctor, because you’re already dead! In hopes of inspiring you to give up data center watching, I’ve made a list of things you can do instead.
1) Exercise. All this SEO’ing is having a negative effect on your youthful figure.
2) Go outside. Let your eyes adjust for a second. (It’s called the theater effect). Look around. Now talk to humans.
3) Watch the grass grow. Grass actually grows faster than Google updates.
4) Watch the paint dry. Use latex and not lead based. Dried paint has a certain excitement that could never be matched by a SERP re-shuffling.
5) Call a psychic to help find your “phantom rankings”. It’s useless to look at your logfiles during an update because the people just aren’t there.
This is just a short list of the things you can do. I know this requires more effort than typing the ip address of the “new data center” and trolling for your favorite keywords, but in the end it might just be worth it.
