Hello everyone- A friend (and fellow member at my neighborhood coworking space) just forwarded me this blog <https://www.grammarly.com/blog/co-worker-vs-coworker/?sf29905279=1&utm_content=buffer21bb9&utm_medium=social&utm_source=twitter.com&utm_campaign=buffer>. It made me laugh and also made me think of how far we have to go! If we can have words like this <http://blog.oxforddictionaries.com/2015/11/word-of-the-year-2015-emoji/> joy emoji listed by Oxford as the word of the year, it's got to be easy for us to get coworking into the dictionary! </end rant>
Also, happy summer (for our northern-hemisphere friends) from sunny Santa Cruz, California.
