昨天下午,我打算整理电脑里的照片文件夹。里面存了很多旅行、和朋友聚会的照片。本来只想分类归档,结果看着旧照片,忍不住一张一张仔细翻看。不知不觉花了两个多小时。等回过神来,我才发现原本计划要完成的工作一点都没动,只好晚上加班。

Revised version
Yesterday afternoon, I tried to sort out the photo folders on my computer. They contained lots of pictures from trips and get-togethers. I only meant to categorize and archive those photos, but once I saw these old shots, I couldn’t help looking through them. I got so absorbed that before I knew it, it had taken me almost two hours. The task I’d planned to finish hadn’t been touched at all. I ended up having to work overtime that night.
