But I love them both so it's a divine collaboration!<BR/><BR/>And I'm at the same place, too, where I have two passions and I'm seeing more and more each day that the two can intersect, inform each other, and feed off each other. And it's ultimately about cultivating creativity, isn't it? Even though I'm in a cubicle now and don't do programming, I still got infinitely excited when the librarian at Corona tells me that she does cooking programs with the kids. I asked her how she manages that, and it ends up she's making do with a hot plate and a microwave. And she is teaching the kids to cook and teaching them about healthy eating. WOW. Again, I find my two passions constantly aligning time and again.<BR/><BR/>By the way, Queens Library misses you, Andrea! Well...okay...I miss you! But the sentiment is the same.<BR/><BR/>Oui, Amy, je l'aime aussi. Est-ce que tu veux aller a la classe francaise avec moi? C'est dommage que tu habites a Californie, n'est-ce pas? Peut-etre c'est dommage que j'habite a NYC.

In my case it's music. I was excited when the band The Gothic Archies did the music for the Unfortunate Events audiobooks, and when the artist who works with the band The Decemberists did the cover for The Mysterious Benedict Society. It's a great feeling, and I've been thinking of ways to bring my interest in music into my work, especially programming.Andrea V.J.https://www.blogger.com/profile/16851808781987532453noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7918674200338298429.post-10763825064013117082008-02-10T16:15:00.000-05:002008-02-10T16:15:00.000-05:00le chou-fleur! je t'aime.le chou-fleur! je t'aime.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
