Yes - I play a long list of musical instruments.

Really? You should just play the instruments, instead of the list.
;)

Me too - mostly strings. But I am learning the piano a bit. I play guitar, fiddle, banjo, mandolin, hammered dulcimer, bass, cello, ukulele, and a bit of piano. Nothing windy.

Awesome thtownse. I add euphonium, trumpet, bones, and Irish whistle to that list, and subtract bass, cello and dulcimer.

Question - how do you focus on your work at the computer with all that fun within fifteen feet away? I usually keep mine in a locked shed and throw the key into a large pile of hay so I don't get distracted.
Actually, not true; I usually just get distracted.

This discussion makes me wish Wordnik had sound. (Other than pronunciations, that is.) :-)

I used to purposely keep my stuff right near my computer so whenever the urge struck, I'd play some sweet sweet loudness to wash away the computer blues.
Also because hay makes me sneeze.

well, the things I kept near my computer were a fife and a set of drumsticks and practice pad.

What do you do now when you need some sweet sweet loudness to wash away the computer blues?
I use a large rotating fan.

For me it's easy. There are three things I like about the computer: Tom The Dancing Bug, Crayola Art Studio, and Wordnik. All other activities require sweet sweet loudness in order for them to be tolerable.

What a lovely sentiment, thtownse. :-)
Chained, I believe it's well past time to bracket "sweet sweet loudness."
