Back Burner

Why do people say they have put their life on the back burner? When I cook, I use the back burner all the time. I don't use it to let things simmer. The back burners are great for smaller pots, and when I use them, I don't get as hot as I do when I use the front burners. Indeed, I most often cook my morning porridge on the back burner; I don't leave it sit there while I do other things--I cook there. So I guess I don't get the metaphor.

That's my rant for the day.
