Scrambled Brain

Disclaimer: Since I have a bunch of things I'd like to write about I'm going to start with a bulleted list of all these scrambly thoughts and see where it takes me.

• I really like python. I like python a lot more than perl. And django just seals the deal after learning mason since it's so much nicer. Although I think I'm biased since the perl/mason I was doing was working off of a huge existing codebase of other people's code and most of the python/django I'm doing is brand spankin' new. But I'm going to stick to liking python regardless of my possible biases.
• For the past year I haven't spent hours on end coding until today - I forgot how much it futzes with my brain and makes me feel all scatterbrained to finish up a really good productive day where everything I did was code. Now my job is much more random and although I get to code a lot it's not constant so I jump around more and I think that leaves me feeling less scattered at the end of the day since I was scattered during the day. I've always thought too fast - but now I realize it comes out differently when I'm coding or not.
• The plasma tv I ordered didn't fit in my brand new house's brand new living room on the brand new mantle because the brand new beautiful ceiling was in the way since the dang new fireplace is way too tall. I sent it back with the delivery guys and have a slightly smaller HD LCD tv coming Wednesday.
• I have fewer boxes and I'm officially out of my apartment. This is all due to my mother's good influence.
• I have a shopping list 12 miles long and I'm really really good at spending money. Thank goodness I'm employed. If anyone asks me if I'm ever going to get thing B or K or Z though again I'm going to scream. I may have a job but that doesn't mean I have unlimited resources and I don't want to rush the enjoyment of the hunt for the "perfect" item. I may dislike shopping sometimes but I love love love researching and browsing so I'm going to enjoy it.
• I'm starting crazy travel again. This all comes after making sure my hours are all packed - of course this means I need to go to CA, NV, NY, and who knows where else in the next month - let alone more than the next month. I already know I'll also be in CO, MT and OR as well this year sometime. Oh, thank you alaskaair for having my frequent flier miles. With you my dream of using miles to fly to Hawaii might come true. Now who wants to go to Hawaii? Oh, but before that I need to make my NV/NY trip reservations... I should do that now.
• I told you this list would be a brain scramble - you're even getting stream of conciousness.
• Goodnight.
