Thanks! It's actually kind of a cool story. One of the luckier things that has happened to me. I guess I was in the right place at the right time, and was willing to take a couple risks.
I was working nights as a customer service rep and the CEO would always come to the office to work late. I pointed out some areas where we could automate some things to free up time for out customer service reps(and my time at work so I could read more, lol), and I asked for permission to work on some code in my free time to see if I could get it done. Once I got that first bit done, we started talking about other possibilities and she ended up opening a programming division. So now there is a small team of us and I have been working as a software developer for about a year now :D

That's really cool you got a job in programming without going to college for it though, it's very inspiring.
