I could write a blog. I have thoughts.

Life at the library, adventures with friends and other hysterics...

"It's so romantic." "Mutual indemnification always is."

Bedbugs.

Gross.

Went in early for training on how to deal with them if we discover them in the library.

Gross.

She showed pictures and told stories.

Gross.

And afterward we all wanted to go home and take showers but we couldn't, we were stuck there freaking out about every book we touched.

Or was that just me?

BUT I did get to leave early cause I went in early. Which means I got to go home for lunch and I watched The Blacklist.

Holy crap.

That's all I have to say.

Holy crap.

If you haven't seen it you should find it online, it's awesome and if the rest of the season is anything like the pilot then I'm in.

After that it was practicum.

Practicum Count-Up 35/90. 

First official day staffing the women's library and dude it rocked. There were huge amounts of books checked out, I was really impressed. After that cleared out we brainstormed for a while, gonna make some flyers to advertise our opening and all that, then headed over to the men's building to figure out our shelving situation. We have way more material in the men's building and we're running out of space.

Looking forward to the booksale when we get to fill up on even more.

That's gonna be interesting...

After that I headed out to see the boyfriend. We went to see Prisoners.



This was another holy crap.

But this was more of a stand back and look on with horror holy crap, unlike Blacklist which was an on the edge of my seat holy crap.

If that makes sense.

I figured out most of it before the end - lots of twists and turns throughout the story but if you notice things from early on then you'll get it - but still, we sat in the theater after it was done and all we could think of was "that's messed up."

Scale of Awesome says 5/10, however it did have an awesome cast, obviously Hugh Jackman, Jake Gyllenhaal, Melissa Leo, Viola Davis, Maria Bello, Terrance Howard, BUT it also had Dylan Minnette who was in Saving Grace and since has had a bunch of guest appearances in things like Grey's, SVU, Lost, Medium, Major Crimes, and Supernatural. PLUS he's in a band called The Feaver which I enjoy.

This is one of my favorites.

27


I find them wildly entertaining.

After the messed up movie we watched some Big Bang Theory and World's Dumbest - yay. Oh and apparently he's so happy to have a "genius girlfriend" cause I was able to help him with iTunes.

Made me smile.

It was amusing though because the episode of Big Bang that was on was the one when Sheldon got all jealous of Amy and Stuart and officially labeled her as his girlfriend.

I told him he was so romantic, but not as romantic as the Relationship Agreement.



Now I'm back and watching - you guessed it - The Voice.

Since I'm not done with tonight's episode yet I'll post 2 more from yesterday's.

These two stuck out especially which is why I'm thinking Xtina has the best team at the moment.

Cough Syrup - Matthew Schuler


i've never seen all four turn that fast. though i really don't like that song at all i do like him a lot.

Too Close - Josh Logan


really reminds me of Bryan Keith which is why I was surprised he didn't go with Adam.


and i'm out. back to The Voice before I konk out.

"Is it all sunsets and rainbows or did you throw up in your mouth a little?"

I knew when I slept through my alarm that this was gonna be an off day.

Woke up at 9:01.

Supposed to be at work at 9:05. Hit snooze too many times apparently.

So I called Superwoman who covered for me 'til I got there.

I got to shelve for a couple of hours today, ah flashbacks. Though shelving at the work branch is a lot less zen than at the home branch.

Mostly because there's more stuff, but also with the home branch I could tell you exactly where anything was without wandering around trying to find it. I knew which author was at the end of the row before you had to go to the other side because I shelved them every day.

Though now since they've shifted that's all changed.

But anyway, with the work branch there's so much stuff and I'm just not used to it so I have to go by signs - some of which are wrong, btw - so I'm scrambling and it took so much longer than I thought it would.

I only did fiction though, no nonfiction.

What's funny is that I know the nonfiction call number breakdowns because I can visual which subject is shelved where at the home branch. Like oh, that's there so that must be in the 741.5's. Could actually tell you the order of the general stuff from memory.

In fact I already did. Go here: Rockin' Reference with the Shelver's Curse

Though I do have an excuse to wander in the nonfiction since we just did a huge shift.

So now when I'm helping a patron I just look like an idiot going, it'll be this way, nope, sorry next row.

Where was I going with this?

Oh, I got to shelve.

It was fun though not the same.

After work went out with Oldest Sister and Squirt.

Things overheard at dinner
-"Evidently she's a whore."
-"But she's a nice whore."

-"Maybe they think Squirt's hot" about our waiter talking to his boss and looking at our table but not taking our order.

-"All my bitches are freshmen."

-"Is it all sunsets and rainbows or did you throw up in your mouth a little?"

Alright, early morning tomorrow meeting the Library Goddess so I'm out after these hits of 2012.
