She rocks, hardcore. She is definitely one of my sheros! And, Daisy, you are following in her footsteps really well. I came upon your site last night, and it is fab!

I was one of the people who was "told" I MUST go to the next Jessamyn West lecture. Not that Daisy would have to drag me there...she sounded so excited when she got back to the library that I already made up my mind to go to the next one (if SEMLS has her back...which they should according to Daisy's description). We are trying really hard to use technology to reach out to our patrons (and, yes, to our staff......sigh) and Daisy is the one usually leading the charge. I probably am right behind her with the flag. Ok, better get back to work. It's Saturday! I hate Saturdays! Boo to Saturdays in the Children's Room.

I am so happy people got a lot out of that whole talk. It's a challenge to take a wild guess at what sorts of things people will know and not know. [fun tip: you can use Google's blog search to find out when people are talking about you :)] http://blogsearch.google.com/ I love that I’ve picked a profession where I’m a spring chicken at 40.

Ah to be forty again! I always say "when I grow up" because the way I look at things each new life experience or learning experience adds to growing up not growing old. I chuckled at that too.
