Whenever possible, I delay interruption by taking 15-30 seconds to cache my current train of thought while holding up a "one moment" finger at the perpetrator.

Whenever possible, I delay interruption by taking 15-30 seconds to cache my current train of thought while holding up a "one moment" finger at the perpetrator. Just distilling my train of thought into a sentence or two, or a mnemonic device of sorts, helps me get back into what I was doing quicker.
