It's Monday, and I'm waist-deep in file and database manipulation in PHP.

On Thursday, I knew absolutely nothing about PHP. To be honest, I still know next to nothing about the language, but I'm learning - fast. So far it's a decent programming language to learn. Of course, I have the basics (for/while/if, etc) down from the eaons ago when I believed myself to be a programmer, so I don't have to worry about learning those basics.

As well, the commands in PHP seem to be relatively simple, such as str_replace() to replace string values, copy() to copy data, etc.

I'm far from being a guru yet... but I'm learning slowly. ;) It also really helps to have some pre-existing code to work off of that I have to modify.
