"You need a plan, Shackleton."

Victory! T-Magic needs to work on his passing before next week against Wisconsin, but I'll take the win. Defense seems to have improved, although their freshman quarterback was very impressive. Burkhead rocked it. End of story.

Class today was fun. I sat in my back corner and drank my coffee. Got a muffin today as well, it was delightful. We did a lot of discussion about Shackleton's Way - which is our text for the semester - and we had to get up in a line and do the whole talk to the person across from you thing. Bear in mind it's only like 8:30 so when we have to move to the next person in line I'm like doing the locomotion or dancing of some sort and the dude next to me was cracking up about me getting my "groove" on. Yeah...This is me staying awake before 10AM. Happens daily. You should see me in the morning as an Aide. Play nice or you will wear my latte.

No, I like that guy. He was a discussion partner in my last class with the library goddess - he sat with us in the back corner. But that class was packed with undergrads, this one only has a few. And now I get to jam with David, who I had my first class with. It's cool seeing the usual crowd. I guess we do actually live in a small world of librarians.

I enjoy this class. The professor is amusing, although she's ditching us next class for her daughter's wedding. We get to mix in with the Library Goddess's school librarian section of the class. I think it's the same class, just public vs. academic. Which means more coffee. I brought hers today and she gave me a hug. I spoil her.
And I'll get to present an infographic that I'm still debating on. They look sweet, but time consuming. We get to present on demographics and I'm guessing the typical presentation is going to be some sort of visual representation of the gender, age, race, education, etc. of the average patron that comes in. But I already kind of know that stuff just from working there. So it's old news. I'm thinking demographics of lost items would be interesting, but no idea how I'd get that information. But that's the beauty of already working in a library...you have genius coworkers with all the answers. I have a month to put it together. Well, actually no, it's due on the 6th of October. sort of. online. I present it next class, whenever that is, sometime in Ocober. Around a month from now. Therefore the graphic is due on the 6th but the speech to go with it is due in a month.
