A lot of the things I do at my job consist of little mini-projects that take a lot of time to complete on their own. Some of them involve simple database manipulation and number crunching which can be completed rather quickly if I focus like a laser beam with the I-Pod on blast.
There are, however, very, very few things at my job that I can complete in the 8 minutes before lunch which comes inevitably at noon. Therefore, instead of starting something, not being able to finish it, then coming back and wondering where I left off, I always screw around for the last few minutes with whatever is currently capturing my limited attention span.
Examples of this include checking the latest news blogs, bothering my co-workers with pointless babble, flashing my laser pointer around the office, seeing how the 6 month old orange behind my computer is progressing, etc. and of course, updating this blog.
Today I decided to update the blog since I didn't want to get up and bother people and the orange behind my computer has been giving me the evil eye since I got in this morning.
You guys got lucky.
