do you type on the computer? do you open mail? i tend to multi task when i am on the phone...sometimes i forget what i was talking about...and i am usually talking to my mom when i am doing that and it drives her nuts... but at work (i am a receptionist) i am always doing something besides talking on the phone... what about you?

When I'm on a conference call that doesn't take all my attention I do other things online..but if I'm the one speaking and leading the call I can not do anything else. xoxoxoxo

I fiddle with my pen or read stuff on the computer when I talk on the phone. Sometimes I watch television also. I guess I am not much of a phone conversationalist unless I am gossiping about something that bothers me. Then, I could talk for hours without multi-tasking.

Usually while I am on the phone I have the tv on in the background for noise, typing something on the computer or playing poker, and having a baby on my lap. It's difficult to do just one thing when you are used to doing everything at once. Maybe that's why I have become so good at multi-tasking.
