Shrift

This week, or more accurately, yesterday and probably today, I've done things that would make any Mudd-trained codemonkey cry.

- Magic numbers. Well, I wasn't the perpetrator of this, but the victim, but I still had to find all the instances of 40 and 41 and change them to 36 and 37 respectively.

- Use of the ?: operator. Personally, I think this one made the code cleaner, but it still gave me pause.

- Use of goto statements.. For this, I have no defense, except that I was mimicking the style already established for similar functions. At least it wasn't a backward goto?

And yet, today I get to go propogate more of that same evil upon the world.

Liquid assets

I got my first bill for my summer room today, and I also got my first Laserfiche paycheck (or, well, notification of direct deposit). The two amounts were within twenty dollars of each other. I also noticed on my time record that I was given a free eight hours for Memorial Day, even though I'd been under the impression that I was paid strictly hourly.

So, I'm in a pretty good mood. Being home by four helps that, too.
