Believe it or not, the <b>, <i>, <strong>, and <em> tags have all been a part of the HTML spec since nearly the beginning.

For those of you who don't know (and many people don't), I made the choice to become a single mother after years of debating this.

Oh... carousels.

My doctor-imposed 2-month delay on starting my treatment (thank you chicken pox immunity woes) has given me a lot of time to think.

I am finally (gloriously) done with the testing phase.

This is an intense week of testing due to scheduling and where I am in my cycle.

I took a couple baby steps in the last 24 hours to prepare my brain and body for the months ahead.

I had my initial consultation with Clinic Beta today.

I attended the Women’s March on January 21, 2017.

This is a tale of two fertility clinics.

I want a baby.

It has been a year.

Accessible phone numbers on the web is a more complicated topic than you would think.

Accessibility testing on our websites is a large, large topic.

Imagine this: You have a file in your Git repository that you need to modify.

Late last year, the good folks at General Assembly hired me to teach one of their part-time Front-End Web Development courses.

Just when I finished teaching my students about CSS frameworks, I come across an article telling me that “You Might Not Need a CSS Framework.”

2015 was a strange, strange year.

I started teaching a web development class and I have been thinking a lot about what happens after class is over.

I like to live dangerously, at least in terms of upgrading my technology.

A few weeks ago, I spent some time interacting with candidates for a development job and peppering them with questions at a recruiting event.

The job market has been really fantastic for developers, so much so that technical immersion programs, like General Assembly and the Iron Yard, have become increasingly popular.

There have been a lot of stories in the news about gender issues in the tech world.

I just started a new job where all communication is managed via Google – e-mail, calendar, and chat.

Is one of your Backbone.js pet-peeves the fact that all of your routes have to start with a hash tag?

I have spent a large part of this year working in a system called Hybris, which is a Java-based e-commerce platform.

I grew up watching the Jetsons, with their flying cars and video calls, and Star Trek, with their tricorders and communicators.

It was a disaster.

And last but not least... the 28th!

The photo subject for the 27th: "playing".

The photo subject for the today was "quiet".

Who knew this photo-a-day thing would get so personal?

First, another apology.

A little behind again, but hey -- it was a weekend.

Work has been hard lately.

Today's photo subject was "full".

I have been falling a little behind in my photo taking again, so here I am, working on two photo posts at once.

Today's photo subject is "I am...."

I had a fantastic weekend.

This weekend has officially been my concert-going marathon weekend.

As you probably read a couple of days ago, I have started to take some liberties with this photo-a-day challenge.

And we're back!
