Done training, real coding starts Monday... I love my job
It's not everyday that I feel confident in my career decision. Many days I question why I'm chose to be a programmer. My family wanted me to be a doctor and on those days that I doubt my career choice I'm often wondering what stopped me from going to...
Decided to start fresh...
I stopped reading the blogs and mail groups I subscribe to several months ago but now I'm back in gear. I think the reason I stopped was because I felt overwhelmed. I missed a couple of days of reading and found myself several hundred messages behind...

After the summer off I think it's time to start blogging again. Wow have things changed in the Admin pages of these blogs. Great job Scott . Anyway, that's all for my first entry... not much content but I need to be reacclimated.
Special VSLive meeting followed by dinner and drinks
Tomorrow night at 7pm there will be a special NYC .NET Developers Group meeting at VSLive . Billy Hollis will be giving a talk on Advanced Windows Forms Techniques . Afterwards, Tim , Don , Rob , Josh , and I (sorry if I missed anyone) will be going out...
Naming Conventions for Forms/Controls/Stored Procs/etc
