Heartsick

To feel dull, or an ache, heavy, tight or otherwise unwell in your heart. Occurs when someone you love is far away, or you've done something to hurt them and you don't know how you'll fix it, or when fate conspires to keep you apart, or in any less serious but just as pathetically painful situation.

Girl: Hannah's been away for two weeks already. Getting her post-card just made me feel so...

Friend: Heartsick.

Girl: Yeah. Heartsick.

Heuristic Algorithm

A learning or discovering technique based on experience. Or, a way to try something new (like a new position), based on what you already know. If you know what I mean...

-"Sheila and I are going to go work out some serious Heuristic Algorithms tonight."

-"I find this solution to your Heuristic Algorithm really painful."

-"You should try Dave's Heuristic Algorithm! It's got some really intense solutions!"
