I have to admit its pretty cool to live so close to work that I can come home and have lunch everyday, and not feel in a panic to eat and get back to work. Its relaxing in a way to come home, smoke a smoke, pet a kitty, eat alittle, get my head on straight, and then go back for another 4 hours at the office. You know that brings me to this, the company I work for is large, etc... (I won't go into the details here)... But when they ask me to come in early, or stay alittle late its *way* different than other places in Los Angeles. I mean they act as if they owe me to stay late, its weird... I'm not used to that at all, I'm used to being expected to stay no matter how long or what its about, well its weird, and great all at the same time.

I'm learning WebSphere at the moment, seem's okay, but then again I've never had an entire team of Java developers before either... so I wouldn't have ever really had a use for it. The only problems I'm having with it is that everything is GUI driven, and those that know me know that is a no no for me. I'd rather be sitting at a shell prompt going to town than pointing and clicking.... I guess it all comes down to really knowing whats going on, instead of having the Bill Gates method of hiding whats happening behind a calm image of clouds, or the Willy Wonka Candy like animations flashing back and forth.

To Jeff : I was bored too... Jason and I both have that in common, when extremely bored... shave your head...
