So I’m overloading my brain with DOM scripting, looking into AJAX, and am plodding through XSL notes from my recent course. Bleedin’ eck…talk about brain ache!
The recent course I went on was full of software engineers and back end developers, and there I was representing for the front-end geeks, and I felt like a fish out of water! Granted I did take a computer science degree, and have always been a bit of a geek, but I’ve always primarily dealt with the build of design rather than the functionality. This sudden surge of logical thinking is somewhat overwhelming now that I’m adding behavourial aspects to a page!
I now sit at my desk with books, and tutorials, and web references and notes and structural thought, all in front of me, and its making me sleepy. Its always something that I knew I’d end up getting into but am I suddenly become a cliche “jack of all trades” in the web industry. If so, can I take a break…I’m pooped!

I think its fair to say that I have not posted a worthy entry on here for a while. Most have been links to photos or events, and that’s it.
I’ve lost my flow and have merely become a spectator in the virtual world rather than a participator.
I’ve been toying with the idea of finally working on sorting out this virtual home that I have but I just haven’t had the time recently…but it will happen I tell you, and I will be back with more things to say, and more things to show.
Keep posted!

On Tuesday I returned from my 2 weeks spent in the Caribbean. Two nights in Antigua, 7 nights in Dominica, then another 5 nights in Antigua.
The weather was crazy hot, and the beaches in Antigua were outstanding, but my preferred place was Dominica. Not only for the fact that my dear friend was getting married, but for the fact that the island is beautiful, natural, and unspoilt by tourism.
Its sad to leave such a beautiful place and come home in the beginning of July to rain, hailstones, and greyness all around!
See you there
