It makes interesting reading.  I recommend that you go read it too.  It may make you think.

In truth, sometimes I do.

It took me years to get the thinking under control to some minor extent, making actual rumination an act of will, and free will at that. Though, of course, my deepest thinking is like background-batch processing- I get a *ding* when the thinking is done and whilst it is happening I have my primary processing on more immediate tasks.

But, no, I would not want to stop thinking full time. If I did that, I'd have to get a job!

Nice tori-targeting icon, btw.
