		<description>GirlPie,

Happy to have you lurking, as ever. Thanks so much!

LOL. My purple paws. Oh, when will this silliness which I brought upon myself end?

Hopefully never.  :)

		<description>Alex,

Short learning curve there, then, as I can make out a little bit of Portuguese and French, and Latin and Spanish I&#039;ve got covered. If I could just mix them any ol&#039; way... he he, wouldn&#039;t that be a horror. My problem is if/when I ever get back to Spain I won&#039;t want to hide out in the mountains, I&#039;ll want to head straight for the beaches! (Well, after a stop in Madrid!) It&#039;s the only place I&#039;ve ever really enjoyed being a beach bum.

Janice,

Mm, the poor dear, some Experience Designer ranks reasonably for legs now. I feel awful about it.  :D  As I said to Steph somewhere up there in the comments, who knew?

I attract very special Canadians, because really, I don&#039;t remember so much rabble-rousing when I&#039;ve visited their fair country. I wouldn&#039;t put all of these folks in the same province, or you&#039;d have separatism for sure!

Oh, I loved that Picasso one, too. He said a lot of great things, but that one&#039;s very close to my heart.

Thanks, I&#039;ll keep bringing as many notorious folks around as I can so we can mix a little fun in with our work!

Until later,

Kelly</description>

		<description>Augh, Kelly- Happy Birthday! I thought for a sec I was on the other Kelly&#039;s site..LOL... LOVE the boots.. then I saw all the Canadians...figured it MUST be a party...
Picking a favorite post here is no fair, but I pulled out one from your Wednesdays. Those seem to launch some pretty  interesting discussions.  Oh, the others do too and you always make me think or laugh, or make mayhem where we can...but I like these thrown into the mix of most excellent Max Customer Experience posts. Those high Kelly Standards don&#039;t cha know.

http://maximumcustomerexperience.com/2008/09/24/inspiration-points-cheers-to-failure/

And believe me, you just keep getting better and better. Cheers darlin&quot; and many congrats . I am in such notorious company. And I LIKE it.  Artist rubs her hands together thinking mischievous thoughts. Bonne Anniversaire!

You could hide out in the Eastern Pyrenees - they speak Spanish and Catalan there (which is like French/Spanish/Latin/Portuguese).

		<description>Alex,

&quot;Because Basque is a non-Indoeuropean language that’s not related to any other known living or dead language in the world.&quot;

Frack. All my years of Spanish down the drain if I ever want to go hide in the Pyrennes, eh? I&#039;m trying to remember if I knew that once and forgot it, or never knew that, but I can&#039;t remember.  :)

Matt,

More giggles and thanks.

Sarah,

Welcome to MCE. Glad you like this little get-together, and I hope you&#039;ll come back often!

Graham,

Do you ever get the feeling that nobody read my post on Googling Yourself (it&#039;s linked up in this post, #4 under people I get traffic for)? Or if they did, they didn&#039;t get at all curious about why I can&#039;t set an alert for my name? 

OMG, this post is #2 for the phrase now. I can not believe it. Nor, frankly, do I want to. LOL, LOL...

You just never know where Maximum Customer Experience will take you, folks, but I hope it won&#039;t take me to this place too often...

Lance,

Thanks!

Karen,

Hello and thank you! Thank goodness here at MCE I&#039;m only 1. Not too painful.

Amy,

Troublemaker. &quot;Spank&quot; is not a useful term for MCE to rank for, y&#039;know.  ;)  You and I will both have even funnier long tail terms now...

As she heads into the tween years I think both she and I have moments when she could happily head for Chicago. On foot. But then, if it ever snows here, apparently little people are very handy, so I should probably keep her around.

Too many toasts yesterday with y&#039;all went to my head, and I went to bed at about 9:30. It was glorious, snuggly, &quot;how did I get to bed this early&quot; kind of sleep. Mmm.

Cake, I want. Poptarts, not so much.

I LOVE the long tail. Disturbing, LOL peeks into people&#039;s psyches. Since you can&#039;t really plan for that, though, I guess I&#039;d better keep tossing out the glamorous wit.

&lt;strong&gt;TO ALL:

DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA&lt;/strong&gt; of the real life razzing I took over my legs today? People suggesting I just take over for that other K.E. so I could make some $$ off this blog?

Thanks.  :D   It was a riot. Now go on and grow your businesses, friends and future friends, and do come on back for another year of MCE.

Until later,

Kelly</description>
