He slept soundly while I lay awake

E-word,

What do you do at work to make your day go by more easily? Lately I've been addicted to NPR podcasts. Fresh Air, Talk of the Nation, This American Life, Marketplace, Science Friday, the list goes on and on. The work I'm doing lately is severely left brain kind of stuff, really engineering type crap, and I find that I can focus on both interesting radio articles and work on engineering stuff very well. It's come as quite a surprise, because I never really did that before. It could be that I've never had an engineering job that required so much pure just sitting down at the computer and making models. It actually helps my work; there seems to be a lot of chatter in my brain, so when I have two things to concentrate upon I can do my actual job better. While I write this, however, I've paused itunes- I really can't listen to podcasts and write at the same time.

Hope all is well, Wordy.

Love,

Toe
