                      JOURNAL FOR FRIDAY 18TH JULY, 2014
______________________________________________________________________________

SUBJECT: Hello? Anybody there?
   DATE: Fri 18 Jul 22:08:10 BST 2014

It's been nearly three weeks since I last posted to the journal. During those
last three weeks I have been writing a lot of code. Mountains of code! Coding
12-14 hours a day. Unfortunately it has all been for work leaving no time for
coding on WolfMUD. Could things be worse? Well ... it's all been PHP :( At the
end of the day, after a 12-14 hour PHP coding stint my will to code has been
sucked dry. I don't really like PHP - I find it a messy, adhoc, fudge-it
language - but it pays the bills and that comes first as I have a family to
take care of.

So this entry is just to say I'm still here and things should be getting back
to my kind of normal ;)

Actually I did get an hour or so Wednesday to look over changes I was making
to WolfMUD before I had to put things aside. I couldn't remember exactly what
I was trying to do with the changes and couldn't work it out either - Ouch! :(
In fact not using Go for nearly a whole month made the going even slower.

So need to get back up to speed with Go and the WolfMUD code and get those
changes sorted out. At least I've been keeping up with the golang-nuts[1] and
golang-dev[2] groups during coffee breaks :)
