I have started delving into the fun that is google maps api. It is much more amusing than what I normally do at work… I am not sure why though. I think that the only time I have actually enjoyed myself here is when I am trying out something new or learning something new. For example, I enjoyed the email I wrote yesterday which involved reading through the UPnP ContentDirectory1.0 [pdf] and figuring out what was amiss, but today I did not like writing the email that said, ‘Sorry someone working for me fucked up and we need to redo some testing.’ I do that too much. I know that being in charge is supposed to give you privileges in addition to the extra responsibilty but I don’t see it. All I see is more work with less reward (don’t say traveling).

Anyways, in the near future you should look forward to seeing a map of all the exciting and exotic places I have traveled in the last year or so. I also plan to keep going places but I will enjoy it more when I can go with Heidi to where I want, when I want, even if it is on our own dime. Al, when I’m finished I can give you the script and you can make your own dealy, but only if you want. You’ve been more places than I.
