When I'm programming I can sometimes get into what I call "hacker trance" and lose track of time, but I lose track of myself in there as well; there's no emotion attached to it.
About the only thing I ever do where I lose track of time and am still present enough to enjoy it is talking with a friend. And even there I don't really notice the enjoyment until it's over.
