Way back, when I was trying to learn to program in C, Tod had some licorice candies with "GP" embossed on them. I decided they were the Good Programmer candies and I awarded them to myself when I finished a chapter. I quickly grew frustrated with C, gave up and eventually threw away the Good Programmer candies.

Last night, to celebrate my minor triumph in porting database software to a new system, Tod brought me a gift of candy. He presented them to me when he got home from work.

"Since this is volunteer work, I though you might appreciate some Kash and Fees. And because you're still learning, I think this Assist might be useful. You are my Sweetie, so I'm also giving you some Kisses."
