Even worse when you have a bug and you cant stop trying to find it and fix it. I often have the feeling that if I stop now, I lose the entire context of what I'm doing and it's just so hard to get started again the next day.

I prefer to dig in until I find it, even when tired and hungry.

Feature creep? It's so easy when you convince yourself you'll reuse it!

I basically need to stick this xkcd chart next to my computer or I'll spend days creating something that saves me minutes per years.

Although sometimes it's fun to automate things just for the hell of it.
