I'd suggest that you start writing Perl code, with two books at your side:
1. Programming Perl, Third Edition
http://oreilly.com/catalog/9780596000271/
2. Perl Cookbook, Second Edition
http://oreilly.com/catalog/9780596003135/
Consider the first a language reference book. Consider the second a
menu of idiomatic Perl solutions to common programming needs (sample
code plus excellent explanations and discussion). Don't read them cover
to cover (yet) -- look things up as needed while you write Perl code to
solve problems that interest you.
If you have Perl, you already have some very useful tools:
perldoc
perl -d (e.g. the Perl debugger; type "man perlrun")
I also use and recommend:

HTH,
