     In my current hobby programming project, I alternate between   
     adding features and cleaning up the code with refactoring.   
      
     Adding features is manic because I get a sense of accomplishment   
     very quickly when I see the program suddenly doing new things.   
      
     Cleaning up is depressing because I work much harder, but the   
     programming project doesn't seem to progress because the program   
     can't do any more than it could before I started cleaning it up.
