OMG GaH! ! ! !

I had been spending an hour debugging my program, it's even almost midnight, with school tomorrow. I couldn't find out why my character's Hit Points were fluxuating so independently during the battle. I was completely stumped. Then I opened up the stack tracer and randomly started flicking madly through all the variable values...and remembered I made 4 characters in the party with the exact same name! I new I should never have done that, because I totally forgot. GAH.

<~fin~>

Programming is 90% debugging

I used to stay up until I heard the birds the next morning... but that was my younger days... now I'm in bed at least by 1am.
