Best compliment ever received?

Pete, yes! At least some basic html/CSS. It can be hard to know when to start, but generally before death is preferable. after all, I was only 47!

B is adorable, of course, LB! He and Dick are both engineers, and I learned something AWESOME. He. Plays. Tennis!

Tie, 25 years apart. 1989: somewhere in the middle to end of the freelance project that would lead to my spending five years at Maritz, a woman named Brenda Walker (now a FB friend! y'all can meet her!) said, "We expected on this project we would need to teach you how we do things here. But you've taught us some better ways too." That's a paraphrase. It was 26 years ago.

The other was last year in Orange County. One of the two guardians of the WordPress Plugin Repository, Mika Epst aka @ipstenu, tweeted while I was speaking on responsive design: http://ff.im/1iwpBn "Fwd: RT @Ipstenu: If you didn't know @Marybaum was awesome before, know now. She's smart, funny, and know her stuff. Also? Led Zepplin in nursing homes! ✌️ (via http://ff.im/1iwpBn)"

Sweet childhood memory - I am not a natural athlete. In fact, when I was nine, I was afraid of the ball. One pro worked with me, pitching soft forehand volleys at my racquet until I hit one or two. That was a great victory.

Have you gotten a chance to see the wildflowers blooming out at the state parks near you this year?
- Spidra Webster
I don't think we're going to get there this year. I'm elbows-deep in print pieces for the tournament May 2 (and I also am trying to put together a tiny little launch for that date, too - a seekrit I haven't even told Dick about!) AND we'll still be here next year - that's how much this schedule has slipped. Not that I mind at all ... :-)
