I'm no Superman!

Is your cook on leave, the muse asked.
I replied in the affirmative a-muse-d by her deduction.
And you can't cook?
Here I was be-muse-d why she would think I could.
I thought you were Superman!
And for the gazillionth time these past few days, but literally for the first time, I felt like shattering someone's belief system and singing the Scrubs theme...
"I can't do this all on my own. No, I'm no Superman!"
The deal is, I suck at 'high-level multitasking', which essentially means that I can manage twenty different things at work, or ten different things around the house (ya, there's not as many things to do around the house), but I can't manage ten of each together.
I know that's weird but reading this would give you a better sense of what happens. I get randomized. So when my parents visited earlier this month, and saw the "furnished" state of the apartment, they could think of more than the aforementioned ten things that could be done with it. To my father who is one of the few men who can multitask very well, this was an alien concept, but to his credit, he accepted it.
However, it left me wondering, if there are things I could do if I manage my time better. Well, to be honest, I've always known the answer to that question, Yes! The real question is what are the things I should prioritise and fit into the limited time I have. After all, I'm no Superman!

Hi,
Your blogs always make an interesting read. Just wanted to know why you haven't updated it for a long time. If you have started another blog site, do let me know.
@Travelling Soldier: Thanks.
@Jayshree: Thanks a lot. Haven't blogged for two reasons, lack of time and lack of inclination. Both seem to be coming back.
Do you blog?
Well, that was a laaaateee reply. I don't blog. I don't think i ever will. I don’t have the tact to write stuff without it getting too personal. And i definitely don't want my private world to be open for public viewing. Now that is why i like your blog, it has a personal touch and yet not so personal as to become intrusive. The other things I like are of course your use of language, you are not verbose, you don’t unnecessarily include big/difficult words to make the blog impressive. Maybe that’s your style with no extra effort involved, nevertheless it is impressive. Good to see the blogger back
