You know that I think you are amazing yourself! You are on my short list of people I look up to in the profession. Thanks for the help spreading the word about the position! And while I had a lot of fun at ALA, I do agree that the level of energy and enthusiasm in many sessions left me lacking, but I will travel to see and hang out with great people. That is worth it for me. Thanks for all of your kind words, Meredith. You know that I think you are amazing yourself! You are on my short list of people I look up to in the profession.
