Am laughing here. Reminds me of when Vidur was little and would want vegetable rice without the vegetables.

Lots of people do manage to leave out the resume though – in spite of email’s thoughtful reminded “Did you mean to attach something?” 😀

That’s so funny; I totally relate to the timer thing and cleaning (or not cleaning).Thanks for linking up. Have a great weekend.

I thought I was a good multitasker until I started working and actually had to multitask and damn it’s hard! I hope you have a great weekend!

I’m a horrible multi-tasker, which is partially why I never feel like I get anything done… I like your timed approach to tasks, I’ve read about it before and have tried it, but always forget about it. Thanks for the reminder. Now if I could just time myself to get the blog rolling again…

You didn’t bring that toasted buttered bread to the interview did you?

“Let them eat toast I say.” – good for the Marie Antoinette audition

I say setting the timer for tasks…even for 10 minutes is a smart cookie…I could use some of that discipline about right now at 11:00 pm at night☺☺

I’d say garlic bread without garlic may actually be pretty tasty!

Oh I have been burned on multi-tasking before too!! So crazy sometimes. I really like the timer idea, and I may have to steal that concept 😉

that sounds like something I would do! I told someone the other day “I just need to embrace that my mind is not what it used to be!” 😕

My mom often forgot the garlic for garlic bread, and hence, we ate lots of toasted, buttered bread. It’s okay. Worse yet, she often let it in the oven until it was extremely well-toasted. Such is life.

I, too, find it hard to sometimes regulate my time on the computer. I really have to watch myself as it’s easy to get carried away and before you know it, your day is almost done!

I’ve done the timer thing before and it works really well. I need to go back to using that. Perhaps I should get off the computer now and do something productive 🙂

I allow the computer & especially my phone be complete time sucks. I soooo need to set alarms for myself. Great idea!

I’m terrible because I just buy pre buttered, pre garlic……even with cheese…..cheese bread in the freezer section.

But yeah, the internet is a huge time sucker

Multitasking is overrated, meant only for bragging purposes. Real people in real life forget things now and then. I like you even more now that I know you are real.
