what i’ve been up to
On the off-chance some fraction of this blog’s vast readership is wondering why I haven’t been writing very much lately, well, I have two excuses:
- I’ve been occupied at work with trying to finish a big assignment (which in part has involved learning PHP more or less from scratch), writing documentation, and tying up various loose ends before my current position wraps up at the end of June.
- I’m also in the middle of moving my fiancee, our pets, our worldly possessions, and myself from Edmonton back to the West Coast.
On the plus side, if you can call it that, I don’t yet have a job lined up in Vancouver, and I’ve got a whole bunch of vacation days in June, so I’ll probably find myself with a lot more free time during the next couple of months. When I’m not busy applying for jobs, I’ll be tidying up a few small projects for public consumption (I’ve got an old Perl script for mapping LC call numbers to subjects that needs some minor edits, and a few Wordpress plugins that I wrote for work) and making headway on some other commitments. Plus blogging a bit more frequently — hopefully once a week or so. And enjoying my new neighborhood, Kitsilano.
