Excitement

I can’t comment specifically, but there’s a few things happening right now that have me really excited (read: REALLY excited). The past year or so has been interesting, filled with ups and downs in plenty of areas. Some of those areas it’s probably best not to have ups and downs but there’s only so much you can do to control things in those certain areas. I suppose it’s a “what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger” situation. Well, here I am, still alive. And ready at that.

As I might have mentioned before, I’m a freak for learning new things. I’d probably be a lifetime student if it weren’t totally impractical and expensive, and eventually learning new things kinda seems pretty pointless if you don’t ever find a way to apply them somewhere. I signed up for this course, which is part of the excitement as of late, mostly to see what’ll come about by seeing someone else’s approach to problems with JS. I’ve been loving the applications built with jQuery lately, so I’m hoping that there’s a good extension of that area in the course. Even though some of the course is remedial in the beginning, what could it hurt to review a bit?

Other exciting news: Charlie’s talking quite a bit for a 15 month old, I find that so unbelievably adorable. He is, just like with most other development stages, shy about us catching him on camera or tape. So for right now, you’ll just have to take my word for it.
