Happy

I am elated. I was struggling reverse engineering someone else's buggy code for the last 72 hours. Finally figured out what the issue was. I have been away from any form of programming for at least 5 years and it was an almost insurmountable obstacle to not only look at someone else’s code, but also in a language and an IDE that I am not at all familiar with.

Yeah, I don’t code for a living these days. I am somewhere in between. Anyway, the reason I wrote this blog post is to relive the ephemeral happiness and acknowledge the 72 hour anxiety when I was pretty much clueless of what I should be doing. I am sure I had some divine intervention, but may be that would make a blog post for another time.

I realized that I shouldn’t be seeking out happiness from other sources of entertainment while such moments of extreme happiness are such a banal everyday occurrence. I just don’t acknowledge them that often (or ever!). So if I walk around with this foolish grin, don’t look down on me.
