Work and caffeine

Over the last two and a half weeks I became, dare I say, a developer. In the grades of developers, I rate myself a demo-jockey, well below the level of an architect. I put my writing on hold, skipped the yearly dude trip to Desolation Wilderness, ignored most people including my exceedingly understanding wife, and [...]

Think of the scene in The Matrix

[waking into real life]
I know JavaScript.
And now I need some sleep. After making that demo, I think I should make a Wordpress plug-in.

Quotes from the Supermodel

In the middle of an argument, Janna says, “You’re drunk. I’m more right [...]
