Can't sleep, code will be buggy!

[tcepsa]

I've got insomnia because parts of my brain keep visualizing writing DHTML that other parts of my brain know is completely invalid.

The parts of my brain that know the code is invalid apparently don't want me to go to sleep until it's fixed (or at least until the other parts of my brain stop trying to code).

I know that it's completely made up code that has no bearing on anything whatsoever, and I know that it would never work and that it's my right brain getting tangled up with my left brain, but those two bits of knowledge don't seem to be enough to let my right brain off the hook.

I want a manual override that doesn't involve NyQuil ;)

Maybe if I distract the right part of my brain by reading about using The GIMP it will stop trying to be creative with Table tags and let me get some sleep...

And this is why I changed majors from Comp Sci to Math. If i wasn't up all night programming at the lab, my brain was doing things like this.

Table	tags
are
always	good!

Sorry, was feeling silly and seeing if I could remember how to do those.

Augh! Yes! Like that! (Looks like you remembered, nice work ;) I need to make some sort of rule of "no coding involving dynamically positioned page layouts for at least three hours before I go to sleep." And while part of me actually thinks it's cool that I dreamed about coding, another part of me can fully understand why you'd switch to something like Math. To me, it seems to have a very similar blend of art and science (though I suppose I'd be willing to debate that when done properly, the two are pretty indistinguishable :)
