Okay so Arizona won.
I can live with that, they haven't had a championship in a while.
Sad that SC couldn't pull off a 3-peat, but they did make it to the championship so that says something.
Had fun watching the game, a lazy night with the boyfriend. He fell asleep on the couch, don't think he's into the CWS as much as me, but that's probably true for a lot of people. Just glad to see him and talk to him as we've both been pretty busy lately.
This week is full of baseball, Bubby has two games that I'm going to keep book for since Oldest Sister is out of town.
And at some point before Thursday I have to write a paper. Come up with a presentable strategy to use in a library book group. And read some books. And post about them. But I've posted two already so just two more. I think that's all the assignments I have for this class. Just gotta remember to pick up the Library Goddess at 7AM on Saturday. or I'm in big trouble.
Pretty tired at the moment, no idea why. Slept in and only worked from 4-6. Then it was baseball with the boyfriend. But perhaps I should sleep soon so I don't hate myself when I wake up in the morning.
Songs of the night:
you'd be surprised how many comments were about mushrooms and cocaine. or maybe you wouldn't be.
heard this one on the way to the college town last night.
we joked cause it reminds me of the wedding singer, but apparently before that movie came out it was a big hit. so i'm young. which is good, cause her children make me feel old.
"...me, fatty, sideburns lady, and the mutants over at table nine..."
Out, full day of work tomorrow.

"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.
Quotes of the day:
- "Just don't be a D-bag."
- "That's your mission statement?"
this is the dude that laughed at my dancing. that's his life code, awesome.
- "So my answer to your question...isn't really an answer to your question..."
- "It was another question."
the joys of going round and round in discussion, this was david.
- "Unless he was quelling their rebellion by boring them to death."someone's comment of joy about the diary of a certain one of shackleton's crew members
- "Yeah, but there's a difference between that and forgetting to put sauce on a big mac!"
this chick is married to a military officer so they were talking about discipline and then this other dude's former boss was an officer and flipped out at this dude at mcdonalds for messing up his order. somehow that mistake got tied to officers making mistakes and having consequences.
- "Note to self, it there's ice and a ship, don't go!"
professor about titanic and shackleton. flashbacks to class with LG. "it sunk, we're over it."
- "You need a plan, Shackleton."
she called me shackleton. i did say it was going to be a stupid question.
"Channel Z" B-52's
a favorite growing up. it's amusing to sing in the mornings while shelving because it's so random.
love the random running through the woods and crazy dancing by the river. 4:26 freeze!
Tomorrow is a halfday then some church league softball. Prince of Peace is going down man! It's game on! I'll keep you posted if there's any Church League Cheerleading.
OUT!

Tin Roof!...Rusted...
Busted my freaking leg back open. Though not as bad as last year's I'll spare you the gross pictures. Seriously, what the crap is it with me and sliding in gravel? I was safe. So you know, it was worth it. But still. Ouch man. Becky says I need to wear pants. Sketch seconded that. Even pulled out my middle name when yelling - that's how I know I'm really in trouble and not dealing with sarcasm. The middle name is the key. But it's cleaned up and taken care of. Good thing I'm certified. I thought taking the class would be cool, what I didn't realize was how clumsy I actually am and how much I'd use the training. It was definitely worth it, which reminds me that I should take the test again and get up to date.
So, the 6:30 game - we got the early one, of course it's the day I'm supposed to work 'til 6 even though the next two Sundays I'm off and we don't have to play until 7:45.
Grace: 12 Methodists: 1
I miss my cousin as the ump. She doesn't end the game when we're up by 10. We had to sweet-talk the ref into letting us play some more innings. Or we just didn't leave the field. Maybe that was it.
Last year we won 18-5.
And, similar to last year, Homey G-Wigger "the Rocket" and me were headed to get some ice cream when we were surrounded by E-Free's asking us to join their team since they were short on girls. They're the underdogs - the newest team, and last year they only won one game...the game that G-Wigger and me joined in on. When Grace played them we won 33-1. But they're a lot of fun to play with cause they're a bunch of goof balls. Next week they have the early game and we have the later one so they asked us to come early just in case. If they don't need us we'll sit in the bleachers and eat snacks. Sunflower seeds. Huzzah!
I got on base every time but once and caught two pop-flies. I'm an outfielder cause I can hit it out there and catch it out there. And throw it to home. That's really my only sporting skills in life - softball. That I only get to play like 4 times a year now, super sad. We should start a library league. We would dominate the branches man. or maybe not. But it'd be fun. Or maybe we could play against Parks and Rec and the cops or something other that's in the City gang. Lull them into a false sense of security with our book smarts and then strike them down like the hand of god! Mwahahaha!
Oh yeah, so we're standing amongst the E-Free and talking, introducing people and stuff - it's basically the same crew as last year and this chick says, "You don't look like a librarian." Which cracked me up because today I was reading this book called "This Book is Overdue: how Librarians and Cybrarians can save us" and it's all about the stereotypes and all that. There's this chapter about librarians who blog, apparently we're quite popular. Reminds me of a seminar theme: "We're not your grandmother's library."
Back to Grace - we rocked it. Our name this year is "Which Steve?" as opposed to last year's "Who's Steve?" Last year Pastor's wife - who's fantastic and hysterical - put together our first line up of the season. Of course, since she's married to him, she had listed his first name instead of "Pastor" and Becky, who's reading it off yells "Steve!....Who's Steve?!" And that kind of stuck. This year we have two Steve's as Scuba Steve has joined our gang of misfit toys. I love us though, we play hard, cheer loud, bring a fanbase...and tiny children that they can run after. Mom: "You injured yourself again?!"

this is a common karaoke song when I actually have time to get out there. diggin' the video but for some reason it reminds me of that diner that Monica worked in on Friends that whenever someone played music on the jukebox they had to dance on the bar. And they were all in costume and all that. Love it.
Momentous day on all counts.
Gonna watch some more Charlie's Angels before I crash. Hopefully that will stop the pounding heart. Happens every year. I love playing softball with these people. They're fantastic.
