Booking Through Multi-Tasking
Do you do other things while you read? Watch TV? Cook? Brush your teeth? Knit? I do lot of other things while I read. a) I watch TV/listen to music. b) I grade papers. c) I cook. d) I clean. e) I talk on the phone.
I have talked on the phone before while I was reading, but my "talking" then becomes more of a 'yeah' and 'uhu' kind of speech. I love listening to music or cooking while I read! Here's my BTT and I hope you have a good rest of the week :) Juli @ Universe in Words
I don't think I would have been able to read and grade papers when I was teaching--as that seems like it would involve reading 2 things at the same time! I'm not sure I could give enough attention to the person at the other end of the phone if I was reading--but it would be a good way to pass the time during a boring conversation!

Wow! You can do a lot when you read! I can half watch some tv or sports and I like to read in the hot tub, but that's about all I can handle!
