The idle mind during long writing sessions...

Probably right around the CHI submission deadline.

Tony: I wonder how accurate the microsoft word "total document editing time" is

Leah: What does it say?

Tony: 617 minutes

:-\

10 hours? that's it!?

That can't be right

Leah: Can't be right

Let me look at mine

Tony: Well, maybe it is automagically excluding my procrastinating time

This would explain a lot...

Maybe it is only actually including editing time

Like, when i'm typing

Leah: Aha, i found it

Tony: In which case, I am typing at 12 words a minute

The funny thing is that overall editing time was longer than 10 hours (each time you save the document as a new name, it resets the editing time).  Overall, I'm sure I was operating at around 1 word a minute or so.
