Oh sure....I have the outlets on that side of the wall wired to one breaker.
It's not distractive if you discipline yourself, and work within your own quirks. For example, I could never work on a TV while I'm working, because I'd have to leave off right where I'd want to keep going, have to start and stop constantly, and I'd get frustrated with both things.
That, and since I absolutely hate having a messy office, it forces me to finish things and reassemble them
