​Recursion Aversion

I’ve thought of a great way to manage my aversion to recursion.  I’m going to write a simple and cute NON-recursive program to generate the insomniac bunny story—you know, “Once upon a time there was a Baby bunny who just couldn’t fall asleep, so Mommy rabbit read Baby bunny a story about a Baby bear who just couldn’t fall asleep so Mommy bear read the Baby bear a story about …,”  and so on until you finally encounter a story in which a baby animal falls fast asleep, and sure enough the stack unwinds, and Mommy rabbit finally gets some sleep.  THEN I will write a recursive program about a programmer who just couldn’t bring himself to deal with recursion, so he wrote a program about a programmer who—Oh, never mind, I need to get some sleep first. 
It’s been a long and lovely day.
