Sometimes, I listen to a book on Audible with AirPods. But, if you do that, look at where you begin because you will go to sleep while the book just keeps on going.

Sometimes, I try to bore the heck out of my overtime brain by visualizing the map of the US and trying to name all the state capitals (not out loud though)……BISMARCK! Where art thou? North? South?……………..ok. deep breath….visualize map……top to bottom…..associate…..alphabetical, top to bottom…….GOT IT!

Sometimes, I start with the 13 colonies. Sometimes, I start out west. Sometimes, I do a random start. But eventually, I bore myself to sleep before all 50 are accounted for.
