I must be honest. This wasn’t entirely stream of consciousness. The raw code was, but I had to edit it and get it in the right order and double check syntax. I just couldn’t resist when I saw the word “if”.

I am not a coder/programmer/developer. I do this shit for fun. If you’re geeky enough to find the errors, please don’t tell me. I know they are there.

Your Friday prompt from Lina G. Hill for Stream of Consciousness Saturday is “if”.
