I don't necessarily need someone there all the time. But talking it out really helps when I need get over that hump and get going on some annoying problem.

I've also found it helps sometimes to have the TV on in the other room, on some mindless sports pundit show that I can half-listen to.

When I have some task I don't want to do, especially if it's something no one is expecting me to do right away but I still need to get it done, I go to Starbucks and don't leave until it's finished.
