I definitely have days like those. Luckily, while my work days are loooong, my work weeks are only 2 or 3 days long. I'm also having fewer and fewer days like this. For about the first two months of steady full-length commuting, my legs hurt every time I moved, every time I sat still, and most of the time when I lay down. I learned to listen to my body saying, "GIVE ME A REST DAY, DANGIT!"
Love the avatar, BTW.
