Any ideas? Any good workarounds?

When you add skip logic you are also adding a page break (even though it doesn't appear). As a work around, you can use display logic on the questions in the block between the question where you skip to. It that is too difficult, you could write a JavaScript to calculate and record the time spent on the page to an embedded variable.
