There was a week last year where I did a huge amount of work on a mobile game. I was in a state of "flow" the whole time, and it felt like the time was just flying past. RescueTime tracked over 100 hours. Many other weeks were around 60-80 hours, but I was having a lot of fun and learning tons of new things. It's not too healthy though, and I took a long break after launching the game.

I can sometimes get into that state when working as a contractor, but it's very rare.
