Hello it's me, I'm not at home. If you'd like to reach me leave me alone.

I'm tempted to put that as my voicemail. But as my phone is the official camp number and I'm either always working or my phone is on silent that probably wouldn't be the smartest idea.

A whole weekend with no internet. It's down at the farmhouse. Usually that would drive me nuts but this time it was actually relaxing.

Saturday:
-Little Sister's wedding was awesome. I got to sit by my baby sister.
Me: I may cry. It's your job to make me laugh right before we go to meet her.
Yeah, she couldn't do it so we passed it on to Jamie.
She looked beautiful and she got through her vows so I was proud.

-Huskers kicked butt! Parentals taped it and I watched it when I got home. Totally stoked for this weekend's game!

Sunday/Monday:
-Okay, Chuck is the bomb. Seriously. It's funny, it's got action and good storylines - I love it. And, now, so does my mom. I got her hooked this weekend. That's basically all we did. Watched Chuck. Ate. Watched more Chuck. Slept. Watched even more Chuck. She was so sad I had to bring it back with me here that I had to leave her a season. Seriously.
And apparently I know absolutely nothing about it at all cause when Angie Harmon guest starred I about fell off the couch. Seriously.
So I encourage you all to check it out. It's fantastic. And if you don't like it then you're welcome to kick my butt. But you may have to get in line. Pretty sure Sketch has been waiting to do that for a while now. I love you! *pathetic face included*

-Figured out my epiphany/revelation moment that my brother and sister in law were talking about us not being thorough on. But I can't post it to Second Sister figures it out. It was one of those...ohhhh! moments. Like I was totally confused about what he was talking about but now I get it.

-Worked at the movie theater Sunday night with Homey G Wigger and some friends. It was fun. I did drinks in the concession stand.
Me: You didn't tell me about that!
Kim: New ice will fall and hit you. Also, you will run out of Sierra Mist. And you will get sprayed.
Thanks for the heads up.
But it was fun and I got started on my book.

Tuesday:
-Went in at 8 this morning to shelve everything. They painted over the weekend and took down everything that was up against the walls, put it in boxes, and piled them in the middle of the library.

Which, normally wouldn't be that big of a deal but at this branch we're smaller and need to utilize wall space. It took all morning plus part of afternoon to put shelves back up and the books back on them. Mass hysteria. But I got to work with Slim Shady and Superwoman so it was cool.
Although I did learn that I was anal retentive. Which I wasn't aware of until now. So either you all knew and kept it a secret or this is BRAND NEW INFORMATION!! sorry. Friends reference.

-Worked on some homework this afternoon then went back to work tonight. Jammed out with Superwoman and now I'm back.

Tomorrow:
-First full day back at both branches since the weekend off.

Song of the day:

Listened to it on the way to work and it was stuck in my head all day. Drove me bananas.

"A Change Will Do You Good" Sheryl Crow

love the guest stars. "Well this isn't Elm Street." She sounds a bit like Paget when she says that - I had to flip back and make sure it wasn't her.



OUT!

Little Sisters and Winding Roads.

I should have known, when I started the day off sweeping up broken glass in the back room, that today was going to be crazy.

First off, I thought it was actually Saturday, until I showed up at work and was like, well crap. It's Friday. Not that Friday is bad.

"Hello Cleveland."
"It's Burbank."

It's just I was expecting it to be Saturday. Where I get off at noon. And go to my little sister's wedding. Instead I spent the day in public service - which I love - except for when you have to call the cops and someone ends up in handcuffs.

But I did get to see my friends. And tomorrow I will see even more. When I'm off at 12. And go to my little sister's wedding. Did I mention that it makes me feel really old that my little sister is getting married? Not to be confused with my baby sister. Or my adopted little sister. Yes, there are three of them. And yes, none of them are blood relatives.

I went to a dorm school. Boarding school. Whatever you wanna call it. And no, I'm not "one of those", you know the ones that get shipped off, it was voluntary. And I liked it. Most of it. Freshman year was hard. I was homesick for about a month straight. Okay, that's a lie. Two months. And that part sucked. But everything else was great. I got to live with my friends, got to go to a great school, I had a blast. And I met some great people. One of them was my big sister.

You see, as a Freshman. Well, as a female freshman - pretty sure the guys didn't do this - you get adopted by a senior. They become your big sister. And they watch out for you. I was lucky enough to get two. A real and an adopted big sister. Which is funny, because technically I ended up with 2 reals and an adopted. Who just happened to be my boyfriend at the time's actual younger sister. But that's another story.

Moving on.

They watch out for you. And I was crazy homesick and they were great.

It was a small school. By the time I graduated there were only 25 in our class. And we were the biggest in the school. The class above us was short on kids and short on girls. So, when a new group of freshman girls came up, they were short on big sisters. I was Junior and the dorm mom's approached me about being a big sister. And I jumped at the chance. When I met her, she was one of the shyest girls. And she was homesick. Which is why I was asked to step in. So I did. And I think I did okay.

For Christmas one year she did this 12 days of christmas from a secret admirer thing. I got like a necklace and...sunchips - which didn't last long between me and my roommate - and some pictures and all that. She was fantastic. And I love her. And tomorrow, she gets married.

Which is why I'm feeling super old. Plus my adopted little sister has a big girl job and is moving here. Huzzah for that!

As for the baby sister. She's good. Cute as ever. Promises she'll invite me to her wedding. Totally freaked me out, couple months back she changed her last name on Facebook and I probed her until she explained. Some sort of status thing.

Kids these days.

Geez.

Old.

So. Tomorrow. Big day. It's gonna be fun. Out.
