It must have been at least 6 months since I last felt properly 'in the zone' whilst coding. And it hadn't even conciously occured to me during that period. Today I've been really productive. The code has flowed again. And the fact that this is a suprise is what highlights how long it must have been since I felt it last! I've really missed this feeling. I find it difficult to express what a key element to the process it is for me. But today has been a very good day :) So here's a list for future reference...

Having had enough of sleep Having a tidy enough environment Having spent some real quality time with my family Feeling like I've used my body
