When you are a programmer - of computers - like me there comes a point when you can either add 2 parameters to every function or remove 4 parameters and change all the other parameters to vectors. It is never a simple decision. You can either stop at the red light or run it and get busted by 4 cops holding automatic rifles. There is no question that everything would be better afterwards but one must way the impact of current stability over future simplicity - everything might just stop working and I would have to put my tail between my legs and go back to a old version - admitting defeat.

I don't know. Maybe. Its Tricky. You can either eat the same lunch you ordered yesterday or risk going out unto road in the hot sun where there is never any parking and maybe - just MAYBE, if you are careful - you will get your car towed away to the furthest corners of the earth. There is no winning. I could bring a packed lunch but who does that? And it may tempted me to snack everyday like a 5 year old - bun and cheese, bun and cheese, bun and cheese, black and yellow, black and yellow.

So what was I say? Oh, yes, So I have a total of 9 days before the next update of my game program. In programmer time 9 days is like an eternity or like 5 seconds depending on how excited the individual is inside. I could jump but I will never know how I will be 5 days from now - trying various wild combinations to get everything as it was before my mind was enlightened. Sometimes I wish I could just come to completion instantly and bask in the glory but I maybe born this way, whip by hair back and forth. I'll be exhausted so I'll probably sleep.
