  • It takes me around 30-90 minutes to prepare a blog post - I'm not a good writer and kind of shy and afraid of looking stupid, so I usually got through lots of revisions. (update: even this short post took me 30 minutes, between editing, answering 5y old questions, and moving baby to new less boring place to sit.)
  • We've got a new baby in the house. Every two hours while I'm awake and not at work, I have a little 15 - 20 minute process I need to do. This is enough time to obliterate whatever concentration I had. I'd really forgotten how much there is to do with a baby - it's not so hard (especially after having already done it once) but it's just kind of...a lot. My concentration is always on the edge of a huge gaping void, ready to fall in.
  • Battlestar Gallactica is back on. A few other good shows I've gotten turned onto: New Amsterdam, Breaking Bad. Time sinks all.
  • Twitter. Before I'm even done thinking a thought, it's on the internet.
    • Works really well with having a baby.
    • Works on phone
    • Can do it while my mind is otherwise unoccupied, like during boring meetings at work.
