Ducks

G'day:
This is very much a cop out: it's a tiny "article" which achieves only to excuse myself from writing something useful.

I'm not finding CFML to be particularly interesting at the moment, so I am completely inspirationless when it comes to what to write. I'm pleased with my code at work (although it's been slow at times), but there's been very little noteworthy that's relevant outside the context of our team.

I'm also slightly let down at the cancellation of the C# cross training ("Adam Cameron's C# CFML blog"). This is being remedied shortly, but it's still a bit... disappointing though.

Added to that I've decided I spend way too much time researching CFML shit I don't actually care about, specifically for this blog; so I've kinda decided to peg back on that a bit for a while. Instead - selfishly(?) - focusing on getting through some more JavaScript courses on CodeSchool, instead of inventing something to write here. I've also got a bag load of Ruby courses to look at, and now Sean reminded me that not only have I not yet gone through "Seven Languages in Seven Weeks: A Pragmatic Guide to Learning Programming Languages", but now the sequel has arrived at a screen near you: "Seven More Languages in Seven Weeks: Languages That Are Shaping the Future". 14 bloody languages to look at? Bloody hell, there's still probably 14 more libraries I want to look at in JavaScript too!

Trivially, I also have a life outside of all this, and there's a few things there I need to focus on, and "get my ducks in a row" (I really have no idea why one wants one's ducks in a row, but - hey - why not?)

So, anyway, sorry for the lack of material. I need to focus on other shit, which means less time for this carry on.

Righto.
