How do you get in the "mode"

I am a gamer who does many things at once.  I love to listen to music and shop too.  I'm a multi-task kind of person, so I bore easily if I am only doing 1 thing.  I don't like it too quiet either.

I mostly play poker, so I have to pay pretty good attention to what's going on.  However, sometimes I will be in two or three tournaments at a time.  But, I really don't have any kind of background stuff going.

I usually play bingo, which doesn't require much concentration. I play bingo for fun. I don't have to go into a room by myself. I chat, watch TV, rush to the kitchen to get things done, even supervise the kids' homework. I just have fun. :) Sometimes, when I play poker, I need a quiet moment or two, but not for bingo. 

Mode, or mood, or even both? :)

For me it depends on what I am doing, I can still be in the zone in a crowded room (I think many of us can, those who enjoy outside/offline games). When I am in front of a PC though its different, things can distract me so for that I am most times in a quiet place.

I like to multi-task even when I am gambling. I really just have too much to do to only do one thing at a time even if it's fun!
