Sometimes, when I get tired and still have a thousand different thoughts swimming circles in my grey matter from earlier in the day, I find myself flipping between blogs I've already read while the TV is on but muted in the background, playing the news or some movie I've already seen, and then I realize that I've spent 20 minutes just sort of vacantly staring and thinking and (mostly) rethinking ideas from earlier in the day, as if my brain just needs to swirl them around for a while before dumping them, or like there's a traffic jam, rush hour style, and everyone's fighting to get off the island and back to the boroughs after work, but there are only so many bridges and tunnels, you know?

Yeah, I know..., I know.
If you want to significantly cut down on that syndrome, I recommend the book Getting Things Done by David Allen. It's a personal productivity system but it's so much more - a new way of thinking about those ideas you're talking about.
