developers life

well just for the hell of it; and because I'm feeling worn.. anybody else find the following true when you're a developer? - frequent bursts of side-tracking onto more interesting subjects - vast amount of inhuman focus, followed by inability to remain focussed - general tendancy to keep taking on projects, often for no good reason - inability to flip out of work mode at 5pm like the rest of the world -- [sub] not feeling normal unless worked you've extra; while other professions demand overtime as little as an extra 15 minutes - constant learning (positive thing) - unlimited skill scope, if its on a computer you'll give it a go - amazing ability to prioritise (the wrong things) - all projects suddenly become uninteresting and all motivation is lost at approx 65-85 percent completion - the code seems more important than the app (even though its not) - lots more but lost interest / focus ps: expectantly installed windows 7 over the weekend, brief moment of excitement coupled with the thought "i wonder what it's like"; anticlimax + reality check, it was just a taskbar, start menu and desktop.. you'd think I'd know by now. regards :-) i so have more important things to do
