Why is it.....

...that every time I sit down to try and get something done, something else unrelated pops up that absolutely has to get taken care of right then?

I swear, my desk and the surrounding area at work look like a paperwork maelstrom has blown through recently. Every single time I have set aside an hour or two to get it straightened out, something else blows up in my face minutes after I get started. The maelstrom gets pushed back to be dealt with later, and gets bigger and uglier each time it gets pushed back. I swear, I think I caught a file folder gnawing on my boot this morning.

Where's a house-elf, gnome, helpful faerie when you need one?
