"I have a short attention span, a very short one, and I have very, abnormally poor energy levels, to such a point that while my physical strength can be up to snuff, my mind is always running at 8Mhz. I am a programmer. This is a problem. However, I find that some places are better to code at than others. If I can sit somewhere upright, looking down at the monitor, in a comfortable position, I can sometimes get some work done, and if my monitor is large, soft, and bright, I am better off still. Do soylentils have issues with location? What would you suggest for being able to sit down and code for hours, something I have NEVER been able to do?"

I'm not a robot like you. I don't like having disks crammed into me... unless they're Oreos, and then only in the mouth.

This habit actually started back in the late 70's when I was in college. I'd put an album on and work on homework. When the side was over I'd get up, flip it over, stretch, repeat. Later on when I got a CD player it turned into 40-60 minutes at a stretch. Now of course it's all MP3s but the idea is the same. Pick an album, start working, when the album is over get up, stretch, pee, look around, refill the coffee mug, pick another CD, repeat as needed.
When I get into the groove the CD is over before I know it, and I have no idea of what I listened to.
Recently I've added Coverville(.com) podcasts to the mix.
