Usually daily. I'll get wrapped up in a conversation and then my brain will latch onto a tiny detail and start exploring the idea. Before I know it, I've repeated the process several times and I'll spit something out that seems like a perfectly logicial extension of the discussion to me but in reality is so far away from the topic I might as well be on another planet. This is usually met with an uncomfortable silence in which I stammer, blush and desperately try to explain my thought process.
For instance yesterday in the lounge people were talking about the Dick Cheney hunting incident and someone mentioned how he didn't have a duck stamp and I latched onto the stamp idea and ended up saying something about passports.
