"Dorien, that cracks me up. Our son teases that I'm doing the dishes because I need to think (and he doesn't have to do them) and he's right. When I'm working on a problem I walk away from the computer and do the dishes. Doing something manual and basic allows my brain to solve it for me. The answer is almost always right there, I'm just too busy thinking about it to see it." - Janet Fouts
