found drama

I want to be involved in a serious programming project. Bottom line. I want to be in on CVS somewhere and make meaningful contributions. Though that’s less important than the satisfaction of successfully brining a complex series of slightly-recursive nested for loops to some successful return. I want my ifs and thens in my mind to wind up elsewhere than the cerebral detritus. I want to be stumped and then figure it out. I want to condense 45 lines to 7. I want $variable $variables. I want something to break and know it was my fault and not have to pick up after someone else’s mess. Or if I am picking up after someone else’s mess, I want it to at least be interesting. I want to #* comment *# out a few things.

Mostly, I want the damn phone to stop ringing every 2 minutes.
