Well, I took I don’t know how many years of Spanish (I grew up in Southern California where you had to in school), but damned if I remember very much of it now.
I really want to learn Japanese, as I would like to visit there again, and at least be able to communicate.
Italian, on the other hand, is a language I would like to learn because my Grandfather spoke it (he spoke 5 others), but I never really got it. Except for the curse words. Go figure. aren’t those the ones you don’t forget.

That was the title of a book I read once, while working towards a programming degree, and working full time as a manager of a retail flooring store. Needless to say, I hated my job. While doing the programming thing I got into designing user interfaces for the programs that I and my lab partners were creating. I was hooked. I changed my major, started taking design classes. I left the flooring business, and with my wifes support, 5 years later I have the job most people would love to have. I currently work from home (I walk 10 steps to my office from my bedroom) and get paid very well for my design services. I also do some programming, as I do enjoy that as well, but graphic design is what I enjoy the most.
