Agree re doing something completely different. I have an old diesel F350 that I work on. The work is physical, tangible and dirty as hell. I find I'm completely refreshed and ready for more 1's and 0's when I'm done.

Also, make sure you have a way to give yourself credit at the end of the day for all the work you've done. Often it feels like you've achieved nothing, but if you look at the list of checked off items on your TODO list, or your list of code checkins it'll give you a healthy sense of accomplishment.
