This is my dilemma too. The focusing part is HARD though.

Does it count if you're trying to read and DH is telling you about some stupid home improvement show, so you turn your head as if you're looking at him but still reading your book?

I get caught by that one a lot....

Yes, yes I am.

Oh absolutely. How do you think I made it through high school algebra!?

i get caught when i am "acting" like i am listening to someone and then they ask a question about what was just said -- no clue, sorry missed the whole last 15 minutes -- i was told by my best friend that i had an attention span as big as a gnats...

Absolutely! Being different has served me well. As a kid it wasn't so neat, but the beat of my own drum has served me well. I've visited OGO. A grand and safe retreat from the boring and mundane.

Yes! I imagine I'm working in my (fake- for now) hatchery and selling lots of chickens, getting rich, and making new breeds. I also imagine being with my (I don't have them yet) goats and breeding a new breed that's a hybrid of Angora and French Alpine and is the best goat for milk and wool and money!

OMG I feel SO much better... 'cept it isn't home improvement, but philosophers who've been dead 1000+ years... but yeah, I'm right there with you.... on page 72... "uh huh" "Oh?! Really?" "That is neat." ...
