I have every intention of editing four chapters, but I browse through the movie channels and what do you know? There's an Arnold Shwarzenegger flick on. Oooooh shiny. I'll just watch until this happens. It happens and then oooh shiny, I'll wait until that happens, that's really cool. Next thing I know it's 11pm and I'm not getting any work done tonight......

Mine is when the email comes in. I'm getting better at batching it though. Also getting twitter replies slows me down. Oh, that reminds me I have unanswered tweets. :) Oh oh 1st comment. Crap.
