in Chit-Chat
The simultaneous execution of an exceedingly large number of tasks. An otherwise unmanageable number of tasks that can be accomplished with an extreme level of concentration. aka taking multi-tasking to the Nth degree.

example: Tam is taking care of a baby, eating healthy, trying to stay trim, taking care of the house and blowing up the boards on MFP shes Hypertasking for sure!

I feel like I am hypertasking today... no time for anything :(

    If I didn't do it around here, it wouldn't get done. If I'm not doing at least ten things at one time, I consider that "taking a break"!:laugh: :laugh:

    I heard this somewhere: "He who chases two rabbits catches neither". I'm definitely more of a linear thinker and doer, meaning that I get more done, and done better, if I can concentrate on one task at a time.

    I hypertask at work.
    I hypertask at home.
    I hypertask in my sleep.

    Tension is the only thing holding me together. :wink:

    Does this count as hypertasking?

    I'm eating my breakfast (three types of berries, bananas and yogurt), cruising the boards, watching tv, all while basking in the warmth of my fireplace?

    Gosh, I live the good life! :tongue:

    But I'm getting soooo tired with all this multitasking (it might also be the heat) that I'm thinking about going back to bed...

    All you suckers at work.... ha ha

    Ok... so I'll start that paper by saying...

    The benefits of stretching before exercise depends on how many guys (or chicks who are into girls) are using the machines and are watching me bend over to touch my toes. These same benefits would proportionally increase as the length of the shorts worn decreases.

    Gee, isn't that all I need to know? Do I really need to use superfluous words and phrases to reach two pages? Maybe I can just increase my font size and double space...

    If it's not an A, I'll add the following...

    In addition to the benefits previously stated, proper stretching technique will result in a warm tingly feeling throughout the body, followed by an increasingly relaxed state.

    I better be careful, I might get sent to the principal's office...

    lol... I'm married to a computer geek, and we have 10 cent word wars periodically...although we can fit superfluous into almost anything, so that's only a 5 cent word! Oh wait, you were talking proportionally increase, weren't you? lol

    But if you worked with people like us, would anything ever get done? Please note, we are all on the computer wasting time! Well, except for me, because I don't actually have anything to do... So I'm filling time. But then again, this filling time is taking away from my nappy nap!
