Writing block

How does one usually deal with writing block. I think it’s a writers greatest foe but i suppose sometimes it forces us to deal with other things. You know, like the dog that’s needing to be fed and the shower you were meant to have an hour ago. So maybe writing block isn’t all that bad, but it is still frustrating. I haven’t really found a good way to get over it yet. God knows I’ve tried though.

Any suggestions?
