Well, it is Friday, after all; and I've at least put my responses
into a single message! (Sorry, Eric!) ;-)

Read and watch television simultaneously.

I think I'd go with either of these two options:
Click the User Inconvenience button

Click the Anti-Productivity button
but I'm not sure.
I am sure that I'm ready for the weekend, tho!
Wish I were working in Ireland, three days sounds like a plan! ;-)
