MULTI-TASKING

Some of you may wonder, “Doesn’t this woman have anything else to do besides write in this blog?” Of course I do!

But like most women, I can multi-task. For example, I just wrote the previous sentence while I was mopping the kitchen floor, simultaneously mentally composing an email response to a student intern, while stopping momentarily to swat a fly on the kitchen wall. I simply grabbed a piece of paper, wrote the sentence down, and then went back to my thinking and mopping, taking care to not leave a soapy scum.

It’s called multi-tasking. Women do it all the time. It’s why we can write down our thoughts, coordinate student internships, rid our homes of insects, and still keep our floors squeaky clean, all at the same time. Duh!!!
