I enjoy working on new projects. I enjoy working on new portions of old projects. I enjoy working on revamping/rewriting old projects.

I don't enjoy doing constant tweaking and refining of the same portion of the same project, one that I've been working on for the past couple of months or so. Bug fixes and troubleshooting are one thing, but workflow revisions that come from a client of a client? Those drive me batty. That, and stupid-proofing applications. I suppose it's more cost- and time-effective than my proposed solution -- hitting users in the head with a hammer when they do something stupid -- but I still maintain that my idea is more satisfying.

Don't tell our current car, but we're contemplating getting a new car. We've had our current car for about 8 years, and while he's served us well, he's starting to show signs of wear and tear, and the repairs are getting to be costly enough that it's almost cheaper to make regular car payments on something new. It's not anything we're going to do immediately - we'd have to save up for the sales tax, and any necessary down payment - but it's something to start looking towards.
