I did 16 games this weekend, and 12 Wed-Friday. Most weekends are similar. It's what I do. I enjoy it. (most of the time) What I don't understand is how you guys handle sitting in an cubicle for 8 or 10 hours. I used to do that, and found it exhausting.

Some of these are kids games, some are varsity and some are adults. I like variety. Maybe that was the problem with the cube.
It's a matter of getting used to it. Most refs have this as an A-vocation (loosely translated: hobby), not VO-cation (career), and can't get that kind of time in on a regular basis. You're right that variety helps, lower level games rest the body, varsity games rest the mind (fewer total collisions to evaluate!!), adult games inject some adrenalin.

Sitting in a cubicle isn't bad at all if the subject is interesting, and if you have a couple of games to look forward to!!
