What next?

i do xhtml/css and a little JS here and there. i took vb courses in high school, c++ courses in university and did very well in both, but its been a while and while i still understand the concepts of polymorphism and inheritance, i find myself intimidated with languages such as python.

at my job, i'm surrounded by senior devs who are extremely smart, but i dont want to waste their time with my "lesser needs"... so i decided to waste yours instead. :) these guys really know their stuff, and i want to get into the game with them.

my question is, what's step 1? and where do i go from there? i enjoyed software development but i really enjoy the instant gratification web development provides.

cheers

Why should you be surprised? It's obvious that this poor soul hasn't had decent computer science education.
