Today and tomorrow I’m in class at Quilogy<\/a> out near Mt. Moriah and Kirby Parkway. The city schools sent me out there to take a 2-day course on the new features in ASP.NET 2.0, so we can quickly get up to speed on cutting-edge programming. It’s a great class and I’m enjoying it. The instructor saw that we were a little more advanced than typical students who take the course, and he stepped up his game and gave us lots of useful information. I wasn’t expecting much and was pleasantly surprised. I’d definitely recommend Quilogy to anyone who needs computer training.<\/p>\n

I also have to tip my hat to the city schools, the first company for whom I’ve worked in seven years that has paid to send me for training – and technically I don’t even work for them, I’m a consultant. They really believe in employee development – the managers actually get graded on it. Once again, my respect for MCS continues to go up.<\/p>\n

I meant to write a post at lunchtime, but then I remembered I was within striking distance of Popeye’s and couldn’t resist a trip out there for some spicy chicken and Cajun rice.<\/p>\n

Hmmm… not a lot else to report. Taking a rare night off from the bars so I can get a quality night’s sleep and be in good shape tomorrow for class. Watching The Apprentice which I DVRed last night. That’s about it. Maybe tomorrow’s post will be more interesting…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
