da | [Perl blog] Linux Journal

Blah. Can't sleep, nervous energy. Been happening a lot lately. I can't say it's from job stress, since strictly speaking, I don't have one. (just a monotonically increasing number of projects).

This last week has been an interesting one, for the new projects I've added.

Last Monday I found myself volunteering to advise a Linux trainer who wants to host an "Intro to Linux" afternoon seminar for the larger local businesses, later this month. Ideally, I'll be useful during the Q&A session afterward; and somebody will want to hire me for a software consulting gig.

Item number two- A while ago I sent an offer to the Linux Journal to write them a couple of articles, which I previously gave as talks to my local LUG and Perl Mongers group. On Tuesday, much to my surprise, I got the go-ahead to write them. First is "11 Ssh Tricks". The second one is an intro article on the Perl Debugger. I probably have a month to write the first one.
