Had to start over at the bottom after alcohol addiction destroyed me.
Landed a job working with WordPress and started having quite a bit of with it. Naturally I just HAD to start tinkering and learned PHP to write plugins and manipulate the hell out of it.
PHP isn't all that bad and is actually pretty easy to pick up. My only gripe with it is that quite a bit of the libraries aren't on par with other languages I've used. For instance, PDF generation libraries aren't nearly as good as Ruby, .Net, heck even ColdFusion is better.
Great thing about Wordpress is that thr plugin eco system makes stitching websites together a breeze. There is a plugin for almost anything.
