How Much of a MySQL Geek Am I?

So, this is me:

Special thanx to Colin Charles for taking the picture and linking to it from his blog.

Notice that in addition to my photogenic qualities as well as the bags under my eyes, that I'm wearing an incredibly geeky necklace.

Yes, it's true. I bought a white gold dolphin to wear around my neck, because I am THAT much of a MySQL geek.

Well, looks like you loves

Well, looks like you loves the necklace much more than MySql. Sometimes, in our lives diamond or gold is not all important as we need more idea on implementating a project or database application successfully by using MySql.

I think it's a great pic

I think it's a great pic Sheeri. As far as the necklace -- I see it as a great filtering mechanism in conversations with new acquaintances:

"that's a cute dolphin necklace" = "Hi, I'm a nice non-techie. Let's talk about 'normal' stuff"

"cool mysql charm" = "Hi, I'm a nice geek. Let's bond over database tips."

Looks great on both levels.

Hey, There's no reason you

Hey, There's no reason you can't be geaky and tasteful at the same time. :)

What bags?

What bags?

I think you are very pretty

I think you are very pretty and the necklace adds a certain amount of class.
