Attempting to get focused

Ever see the movie Swordfish? John Travolta, Hugh Jackman and Halle Berry are all really good in this. There’s a scene in there that often comes to mind when I’m at work and I can’t get myself to focus on my duties. It’s where Travolta orders Jackman to hack into a network in under a minute… while receiving a blowjob. At one point you can tell he can’t concentrate, so he claps his hands together and closes his eyes in an attempt to focus.

I’m easily distracted, so it won’t take much for me to lose my focus. Lucky for me there’s no one here trying to go down on me at the office (some of you may disagree, but believe me it would NOT be good for the home life). I know I’ve already established I wouldn’t feel guilty for blogging during office hours. That’s not the problem. The problem is one of my team has had the nerve to go on a week-long vacation, so the rest of us have to pick up the slack. So it’s more work to be done in the same amount of time, and here I am still thinking about blog material.

So anyway, just wanted to get that off my chest. Time for me to clap my hands together, plug myself into some trance music and focus on getting a little work done.  As soon as I finish coughing up the water I just tried to inhale.
