Actually I use comments in a fairly unique way. I pseudocode what I want to do in comments, and then code around the comments so I can keep track of where I am at and what I am trying to accomplish.

This is what Steve McConnell recommends in Code Complete, a well- regarded general reference to programming, so don't feel all alone in this.

I can't say enough good things about what McConnell brings to the table in his books. I'm re-reading his "Rapid Development", and while the first reading brought my supports costs down below a third of industry averages, this second reading is already boosting my output.

There's always something new to learn, always ways to improve just about any process, and with McConnell's work being a solid experience-based distillation of decades of research in software project management his books provide significant bang for the buck.

I have a link to a podcast interview with McConnell on revJournal.com right now:
