When I was up in Northern California I had the pleasure of meeting in person some awesome people that I’ve known only online. One such person is Rebecca Blood. She and her husband, Jesse James Garrett, (I believe they are the original Internet Couple) met me at Adaptive Path where they gave me the grand tour. The building all by itself is impressive (as you can see below) but I love their office for a lot more reasons. One being that they gave me coffee. For free. I know, right? And another is that when you walk in, it’s all open and friendly. They have moving walls, people! With white boards on them! If I had any reason to hire them, I would, as the creative energy running rampant in the room was palpable.
Rebecca, Jesse and I then went to lunch where we ate delicious sandwiches and used our sharp minds to discuss Tivo non-stop for over an hour before we took Jesse back to work and Rebecca and I took a lap around the South Park area. I think. Unless I got that name wrong. But in any case, it was lovely.
Same trip, different day, I met Judith Zissman at the nicest tea shop I’ve ever been to. She had a wonderful blossom tea. We also shared some fruit. My legs dangled to alarming depths under the table.
Judith is smart, funny, has a beautiful smile and knits.
After tea, she took me across the street to a yarn shop and Oh. My. were there some wonderful yarns. I hope we get together again sometime soon.
