¿qué pasa?

i’ve considered switching to russian and spanish for all of my writing on this site. but i don’t currently know enough of either language to really pull it off. but i’m going to work on that.

i’ve thought about writing more here about work, but on the other hand, i’m well past being one of those people who gets all rah-rah about their work. 5.0 binaries were dropped on the world right before christmas, and things are definitely heating up on all sides of the company.

i think i’m going to take “basic drawing 1” through the ucla extension visual arts program. there’s also a one-day seminar on urban design that looks interesting. i’d link to the courses, but the ucla extension site doesn’t believe in that whole linking thing.

the o’reilly open source conference 2004 call for papers is out. i need to decide what i’m going to do about conference speaking this year — the “extending php” talk is dead-and-buried. i submitted a talk for php québec 2004 but haven’t heard back. i may recycle that idea (and talk, if they accept it) for the o’reilly conference, and maybe for the mysql users conference.
