So...I spent the day attempting to not flip people off.
Not because I was mad, but because I stabbed myself in the middle finger around 3AM last night - apparently I should stay out of the kitchen when I'm half asleep, or not asleep whatsoever - and I'm sporting so many bandaids that it won't bend properly.
Now I'm all queasy so I don't want to look at it...I'm just gonna assume it's fine.
I'm still walking and breathing so it can't be that bad.
Today was good.
Worked 9-1, took a nap, went out to dinner with the sisters, came back with a box of leftovers.
We had fun, but we always fun.
Quotes of the night:
-"Gazinta" was our family the only family subjected to this word on a regular basis? It means thing. But you can't come up with a name for the thing, so instead of just calling it a thing it's a "gazinta".
-"Why would I have a knife?"
-"Well, why would you have worms?"
-"Ferticula"
-"They probably took them down cause they got tired of explaining 'ferticula'."
Second Sister says she never gets "quote of the day" but she had some good ones tonight. Though some I can't include.
All I got for tonight. It's back to work tomorrow and then hopefully date night with the boyfriend.
Enjoying one of my last nights without homework by catching up on some Wipeout.
Classes start up again Monday. Thankfully I'm really only taking one - I mean, I'm registered for two but one of them is the practicum so the only real homework with that is just the actual hours on site and then the papers due at the end of each month.
Youth Services is my main class this semester. It's one of those "choose your path" classes where you pick a focus of either teens or youth. I will go with teens as I work with them more often and could actually apply what I learn.
I'm not going to think about October. October and comprehensive exams don't exist on my radar until October starts. And even then it's like the third week.
Plus I got my comrade who's taking them the same time. We'll meet up for coffee and go over sources. Which is allowed. As long as we don't write the papers together.
That makes me freak out about it less.
Okay, off to bed. Should enjoy this whole sleep before midnight thing while I can.
Hope you had a good one.

The Wanderer - Dion
classic.
I could write a blog. I have thoughts.
Life at the library, adventures with friends and other hysterics...

"That sounds like an 80's acronym."
It all started with a conversation about stereotypes.
I'm pretty sure I'm turning into that librarian that makes people look at pictures of her cat. Cause the percentage of pictures I've uploaded on Facebook so far in 2013 is like 75% with cat, 25% not with cat.
And it's not like 100 pictures, it's like 5 so don't give me that look.
But he's cute and fluffy and sleeps all the time all over the place and I find it amusing when he sleeps next to McDermott the furby.
That he still hates, by the way.
Though I'm not its biggest fan when it turns on at 2AM just to ramble about being hungry or wanting to dance.
Anyway, so I said I'm turning into the stereotype cause I have a cat and I drink green tea to which BossLady asked if that means librarians are supposed to be hippies and that she composts - and she's quite proud of her compost - so then we got into this whole discussion about what goes into compost and how you're supposed to water your plants at night because the water evaporates during the day.
Then I asked her if she was one of those water police people who yells at you if you leave the faucet running whilst brushing your teeth to which she said she was and apparently in grade school they had this whole seminar on SWA SWA.
Which apparently stands for Save Water And Save Water Again.
Glad I wasn't drinking any water at the time cause there would have been multiple spit takes.
But SWA SWA had a salute and everything so from now on BossLady will be greeted with one cause I find it highly amusing.
Quote of the day:
"I loved growing up in the 80's"
"I grew up in the 80's"
"You were born in the 80's"
Then somehow we got on the subject of the farmhouse - oh I said Mom used to have a garden but then Dad put a building over the top of it. And she asked if we had a quanset to which I replied yes and I was stupid enough to have climbed to the top of it when snow had drifted that high.
Mom flipped, Dad went inside and got the camera.
So then the conversation shifted to how I was a brave kid, or an idiot kid, cause a few years before that was the running over to my grandparents house incident when I was like 3 or 4, barefoot on the gravel in the dark.
But it was at the scary part of the movie and I couldn't find my parents so I ran the half a mile to the safety of Grandpa's house and he drove me home and Mom and Dad didn't even realize I was gone!
To be fair they were helping Second Sister clean out a bin.
And you have to tag team those, you don't want to get hosed by the auger.
So I could blame my earliest memory on her but I kind of like her so I'll just call myself brave and be done with it.
And really that was the highlight of today. Everything else was pretty slow. Aside from the creepers everywhere, on the phone, in person, all that.
Blah magnet.
Well, the highlight of work anyway. I did a lot of homework tonight so I'm basically done until after the library visits this week.
Oh yeah, this week is gonna kick my butt.
Comps review Monday, special library tour Wednesday with homework to follow it, special library tour Thursday with homework to follow it, and then Trivia Night on Friday and I still haven't found anything to wear for Donna. I'm gonna have to look up some pictures of her in character and see if I have anything to cover.
Unless anybody has any fun 70's clothes they'd be willing to let me borrow for a night.
Anyway, I'm hoping to see the boyfriend either tomorrow or Tuesday, or both, so the other homework assignment that's due on Saturday I'll be doing throughout the week. Tonight's took far longer than it should have.
I hate coming up with smart people questions cause I always feel dumb.
Plus I'm an English major so phrasing gets to me and I start writing one question, changing it 50 times and then an hour later I change it back to how it originally was - which was fine I just was overanalyzing.
But it's homework and apparently I'm a perfectionist.
Anyway, it's late and I need to sleep. Carter is already decked out beside me.
Don't worry, I won't drown you in pictures. I'll save it for Facebook.
Though he is pretty cute.
Alright, on to the music so I can sleep.

Cause I'm a wanderer, yeah a wanderer
I roam around around around around......
The game's afoot. Time and patience will now take precendence.
Today was awesome. Shelved from 9-12, there were actually things for me to shelve, huzzah! Well, that and checking in delivery with the awesomeness that is QofA. And oh man, my Glee-Loving Boss does storytime and he gets really into it with the voices. This morning there were all these animals crying in a story and one of my coworkers who was in the back room called the front desk just to make sure everything was okay.
After that the day was cake. Took a nap, watched some Charlie's Angels, ordered pizza, read the rest of my textbook - I'm still debating on what to post. Name an example of leadership that Shackleton showed and two management acts he used to accomplish this. I'm thinking that he was able to keep his team in good physical and mental health and he did it by dividing up the group by personality types to stay in tents together and ummm.... something about the rations or warm food or something. No, that's dumb. I'll think of a better part two to that. Then something that he did that relates to something my current boss has done. I'm thinking delegation will be the answer there. But nothing's final until I officially post it.
After all that was more Charlie's Angels - season three, Jill guest-starred after her fiance is killed in an accident that could have easily been hers. It's amusing, even though Kris is in the show through the rest of the series I still think of her as the kid sister. Even though she's like her own person. Yes, I know me and my charlie's angels. QofA said that today. True dat. But it's helping to distract me from Chuck and my utter lack of season four. Which isn't due to come out until October. So, in the meantime I'll make due. Or maybe switch it up with some Big Bang Theory season four, huzzah!
Tomorrow is more of the same - halfday. I think. Will check on that again before I take off. Then going to watch Squirt and Bubby play some volleyball at my old high school plus supper with Oldest and Second Sister(s). Should be fun. Taking a pregnant lady to a brewery probably isn't the wisest choice but they have lots of options. Besides I haven't been there since my 21st and I'm craving their rainbow chicken and fries.
