Although I find myself to be a very logically oriented person, I think that programming may be what I use to vent my creative energies.
I think the main draw for me with programming is the act of creating "something" out of "nothing". It's an execise in thought, from which a useful tool or toy may emerge. I know that "nothing" is really the language and the machine (or virtual machine), but basically you turn ideas into reality (or as much you can consider software reality, it's still just bits of magentic flux on a metal platter somewhere).
