I passed the CCNP a couple of weeks ago. That’s old news… but in the mail today came the certificate and a nice surprise! The CCNA card was a laminated card the size of a business card. Perhaps the entire system has changed (my CCNA was in 2005), but my CCNP card is of much higher quality! It’s a plastic card - solid like a credit card or student/work ID (at most big schools / companies).

I also got the printed certificate, of course! It’s a very nice confirmation and more than suitable for the office This didn’t stop me from looking up the plaque you get for reaching CCIE… It’s quite nice - the only picture I could find was on Scott’s, CCIE# 14618, blog.

So what have I done today?

Not a lot! At least not much as far as CCIE is concerned. I planted some perennials, fed my son, showered and slept (while he was sleeping), and then we went shopping for more gardening stuff. We’ve lived here 4 years and I still don’t have a shovel! Well, I bought one and spent more than I should have on dirt, summer bulbs, and garden hand tools (which we also didn’t own).

I did manage to do a bit of reading ahead (Spanning Tree Protocol) and my SuperMemo repetitions.

So what’re my plans? Some diet coke, heroes, and as much studying as I can fit in before 11pm. Tomorrow will be much of the same: gardening and studying.
