Since I have been working the night shift at city hall performing maintenance tasks on computers, I am allowed to play games online while I am waiting for the computers to do their thing.  In all seriousness, I am there, but if you were to figure out how much time I really work, you would realize that I don’t do a lot of work at all.

So, I have been taking advantage of my freedom to play games online, and lately I have been playing word games that are much like Scrabble.  I thought that it would be a great opportunity to learn something new while keeping up on my spelling skills.

But the one thing that I have found is that there are a large number of health conscious people on the site that I play.  Typically, you can find many health supplement names on the boards (such as spirulina, barley grass and chlorella) and since I had never heard of them, I ended up looking them up online.

I think of it as a paid education and a tool to relieve the monotony from my job.
