I have time to kill.

Have you ever sat staring at the computer, waiting for the next page to load, or the file to finish downloading? I find my self doing this quite a bit. I have a thought while waiting and then go off on some search tangent that just ends up opening another tab/window, and then I forget everything else that's going on. In fact right now I have seven programs running, 3 tabs open in Vista (fuck vista by the way), a mixed CD in the works, and I've barely started what I sat down to do; write my blog for today. Which I guess is kinda the reason I'm now writing. I started out with nothing, remembered something I was gonna look up (The Pogues) then started my usual tangents of windows, programs, searches, files, torrents, and shopping. Then I found myself staring at a status bar. Just watching it. Waiting for it to finish like I had nothing else going on. And now here it is 9:17 and I really want to go to bed. But I'm in the middle of ten things. Yes I know they can wait till tomorrow. In fact some of the downloads won't be done till tomorrow, but I insist on continually watching their progress. I'll prob finish my Cd, purchase the Ebay item I have looked at twenty times over, read a little more about The Pogues, check Facebook one last time, Then prob kiss the wife and crawl into bed with Reilly (I know he's already warming up my side of the bed, such a good little boy). I wonder how much of this would have already been done if I didn't space out while watching that little status bar?
