I would be inclined to agree with Isaac...

I was effectively not allowed to work last year because I was waiting 
for the US government visa approval process which seems to move on a 
geological timescale.

I kept myself busy by increasing my knowledge of Java helping out on the 
CFEclipse project.

Now that I've got my work permit I find I'm getting just as much Java as 
CF work. That certainly wouldn't have been the case a year ago, so I 
think it was time well spent.

Besides, it's always good to diversify. It makes you more employable and 
makes you a better programmer at the languages you do already know IMO.
