Efficiency

As a general rule, I'm efficient.

In fact, it isn't unusual for people to comment on how much I get done.

However, it also means that I am always thinking about what is next.

I remember noticing that when Rhonda-of-the-Comic-Strip-Pantyhose was raising small children that whichever child she was talking with had her full, undivided attention.

Sometimes efficiency isn't the goal.
