I done earned me a trip to the spa with the funny hats! Yay! I gave my presentation at work.
I’ve also set out an ambitious course of stuff I want to learn at work over the next year or so. Almost a terrifying amount of stuff to learn. But I think it will give me more of the kinds of work that I’m suited for rather than the hit & run projects my people seem to usually get pulled in on. It’s all there just waiting for someone as far as I can tell, so what the hell. Now if I can just convince the devs & technical architects to let me sit on their shoulders and give me scraps now & again that they would rather not do… Do my own homework & convince people to let me feed them my dogfood… And spend some serious time brushing up on XML & XSLT & some other things to help smooth the tweaky… I’m looking forward to it. No end of stuff to learn though.
It’s late! I have to get up early! And tomorrow at the end of the day at the end of the week I’m being forced to network! EEK! Am I out of my comfort zone? Oh yes, I’m out of my comfort zone. But she’s a nice smart lady and I think it will be good.
