Maria, you will be missed here at Jez but I am certain you will shine bright wherever you are employed. I loved your contributions and wish you all the best in the future.
At my first Jez meetup I was standing on the edge of the crowd thinking about leaving (except it was pouring down rain, so that wasn't going to happen) when Maria came up and talked to me, and then helped me ease into the crowd.
I'll miss you a lot, Maria, and I really hope you show up here in the comments and at some NY meetups.
I can't believe my young man from Nigeria is cheating on me with you! I thought his emails were just for me and now it looks like he's been sticking his emails in other girls' inboxes all along.

Then we'll make cotton candy and blow bubble kisses and snark and it'll all be good.
Well, yk, without the food or the rent, or whatnot. That part, notsogood. But the bubble kisses, they're good, right? RIGHT?

No, seriously, though, best of luck to you and hope to see more of your writing again on the interwebs.

Good luck wherever this takes you, and hang tough!
