+1 for this. The Pomodoro technique usually helps me when morale is low. You can always commit to a 25 minute push.

First of all, programming tasks defy time planning, as the next unplanned time-sinking bug or unforeseen difficulty always waits just around the corner.
Second, when you are in the zone, a timer going off every 25 minutes will just cause aggravation.
Also, I totally agree on your in-the-zone statement. I currently only use Pomodoro when I am having a slow day and I don't want to let the procrastination get the best of me. When I am in the zone I don't need Pomodoro to help me! =)
