Months ago, Rick Mahn asked me to list 5 things I was thankful for. Friday seems like an appropriate day to respond:

1. Red Stag‘s Mac & Cheese for lunch.
2. Re-arranging my office making both a cozy reading corner and a usable coffee-making corner. (Finally)
3. Ruby.¹
4. You.
5. Checking one more thing off the To-Do list calendar.

1. There’s a longer post in here about being productive in 2 hours. Ruby is the second language I’ve written in (the first was RealBasic, years ago) where I can solve a problem and start a new problem in the course of just 2 hours. Add a few well structured Google searches and the number of solved problems increases dramatically. Happiness.
