Narrative:

Ground had cleared me to taxi, but hold short of crossing runway (while taxiing to hangar). I had been distraction as a result of a conversation I had with the CFI/passenger in the other seat, and had forgotten to hold short of runway. Ground informed me of having crossed the runway without permission.
