A HIDDEN SUPER POWER?

Right, sssh, don't tell anyone but I am actually multi-tasking.

True speech. I'm doing four things all that same time. And no, I'm not including breathing or daydreaming. Four actual tasks. Simultaneous.

What's gone on? Was it because I had porridge for breakfast? Have I discovered a hidden power I never knew I had?

By day, he's a mild-mannered technical writer. But whenever there's... um... a lot of work on... er... all at the same time... Matt Stubbs becomes...

Organisational Superman.

Yeah, I don't know how I've suddenly managed to multi-task. Normally, my brain requires absolute focus on one thing at a time and I get really annoyed at being distracted. I can concentrate, but I'm not normally clever enough to be bifocal about it and concentrate on two things at once.

Today though, I'm right on it - whizzing through my tasks as though they were made of paper, leaping across my inbox in a single flick of the mouse and doing it all faster than a speeding paperclip.

I have a feeling it won't last, this super-power. It's probably just as well; I definitely don't have time to make the costume.
