Back from my European Vacation

I am finally a citizen of the world. I beat out the 85% statistic in which American's from the USA do not venture out of the USA. I flew into Paris spent 5 days, then went to Brussels (1 day), Amsterdam (2 days), flew to Barcelona had to stay there a day because Venice was on strike, then to Venice (2 days). From Venice to Rome (5 days), then to (day trip) Naples, Pompeii, back to Rome then back to Paris and finally home.

I can go into detail of how awesome this trip was but I am going to focus on how recharged I am. Man am I! During my travel times I geeked out and read the MySQL 5.1 Plugin Development book by Sergei Golubchik and Andrew Hutchings, which is AWESOME!

Now that I am back I hope to put the things I learned from Plugin Development into action and write posts about them.

Some Posts in the next couple of weeks that I am going to focus on. SQL optimizations, Optimizer problems in 5.1, Stalls, performance performance performance.
