I was packing up boxes of books and it reached out and pulled me away from them, just like that. I've got to stop getting so close to it (and maybe turning it on). <BR/><BR/>Plus I've got almost all of your demons too, except no mom to call me and distract me anymore (sniff).

She won't fetch them back any more (she's too fat), so I have to leave my desk to pick them up. It's all her fault!<BR/><BR/>I find the Sudoku demon pretty disabling, too. That's my fault.<BR/><BR/>Then there's the "paid assignment" demon who insists I do real work and get paid for it, so I spend time writing about other people's careers instead of working on mine. That demon brings me money, at least, but then that tempts the shopping demon.<BR/><BR/>The gardening demon is making me go to website and browse catalogs for a new garden in the front yard.<BR/><BR/>The blogger demon, definitely.<BR/><BR/>The rejection demon is hard to face.
