Yep, I do very little programming outside of work these days. Now when I have free time, I'm more likely to be tramping around with my camera somewhere. 🙂

    I have non-programming projects as well (even I can get sick of the thought of sitting at a computer), but in work I don't get to play with different architectures or approaches without a mandated payoff so I have to do so in my own time. But none of those other projects are PHP projects.

        I have a little too much work at the moment but usually I have enough free time to make furniture. We are just about to start renovating our apt in Spain (so I'm plotting to not work much until next year as of August). Maybe I'll just stop working altogether and eat pinxtos all day long...how can that be my next profession? 😉

        Isn't "spikes" another word for those little appetizer sandwiches? Something I read indicated perhaps it was.

            nope. pinxtos. tapas. bocadillos. but not, spikes.

            maybe spikes refers to the toothpicks that come with some of them?

            they come with so many things on them. while i LOVE a real american sandwhich, pinxtos are very nice. mostly i have them with tortilla (spanish egg potato omelette) or with a sliced of fried chicken breast. they can get very extravagant though...some of them (more tapasy though) can have spikes with insanely good canned seafoods (like sardines).

              The Spanish word "pincho" is literally "spike". I think pinxto would be a northern idiom, maybe Basque. I'm pretty sure you're spot on with the toothpick thing. :-)

              Oh, and "slice of fried chicken breast" ... #now_I_want_Chik_Fil_A 😃

              I actually wrote some non-work code last night, tinkering with something simple for a photography portfolio site (so far just 2 small PHP files, no database, no JavaScript).

                dalecosp haha, i didn't know that. i've never been to a chikfila...but imagine having two of them on every block. except, much more charming spaces.

                occasionally, i spazz out on having so much spanish food and go to Burger King.
