The dangers of multi-tasking

I was excited to figure out that I could listen to Playlists (something I take very seriously and really enjoy) while watching doggies play outside. Great idea and a pleasant way to pass the time when I can't accomplish anything more intense.
However, to my surprise, I found out that there are limits to the success of even this lightweight multi-tasking: I've been enjoying the music and making my usual, random comments. However, I sent comments without even noticing that one sentence stopped right in the middle - and, looking back, I have absolutely no idea what I was going to say (something brilliant no doubt ^_^)
Oh well, I'm still going to do it and it will help me get caught up on Playlists - but things are likely to be even more disjointed than usual due to the constant interruptions (like the one that just happened when the mailman came - one of the most exciting moments of the doggie's day!).
