Are we getting better?

I was just able to get to most of my friends groups to catch up. LJ withdrawal is just ugly and uncomfortable and sad. Is it over?

Work has been good lately. I'm getting to do a lot of stuff that I don't have a clue how to do. Figuring it out successfully is great fun. Today I had to edit a bunch of XML pages and create a couple of new pages and then magically turn them into mspx page so they render like regular web pages. I had no clue how to do it. I got a hint from someone passing in the hallway and noodled it out from there. I'm quite proud.

I want to understand more about XML and all it's relatives and how it works with RSS and all the various permutations. I get little peeps here and there and maybe someday I'll be able to put all the pieces together.

I'm on standby again for work this weekend. One of these days they are going to quit crying wolf. Wonder if it will be this weekend?

It's been delightfully cool here for the past few days. I know it won't last so I'm just trying to enjoy every second of it. I am going to stop. I'm making a stop at the library on the way home this afternoon.
