Women Who Code meeting

Hands on keyboard today for the first time in a month.

A month feeling deep, irrational anger at Free Code Camp for dumping the "Wikipedia Viewer" assignment on me without adequate training.

After the meeting: a nice WWC member "Sara A" sent me a friendly email recommending the Eloquent Javascript book. So sweet. Amazing how a little human gesture can encourage and motivate me. Even though her solution has not got much to do with my actual immediate technical problem, it helped a lot with what I guess is my technical loneliness problem. None of my current friends is interested in my little coding hobby.
