That's so funny, Kate! Where was it?

You are not just a library patron, Jesse. You are a library patron!

Hee! I just mean I have no professional obligation to promote library usage. It's more an avocation.

I have some tips for how to get a listing of all of the items in the format you want, such as DVDs, CDs or tapes.

Yes please!

I can't even see how to get a card on the DC site. Lord. I'm useless today.

And BTW, I didn't feel pushed at all. Oh contrare (phonetic). I appreciate the reminder of the great resources that surround me.

That's so funny, Kate! Where was it?

Church of the Ascension. I had the address written down, and then I printed out the info I had gathered when I came to New York for the Nillyfest in August, which had directions to your old apartment on it, and I looked at it and thought, "wait, that looks familiar..."

Of course, at the same time, I was in Somerville doing family stuff, and kept thinking I might run into a Buffista there!

Heh. Wasn't it just today in Bitches, someone was asking if there was a word that meant an xpost, but in real life? I think that might qualify.

Were you able to see the last new Lost episode? If not I can pop it in the mail to you. This week seems to be a recapping episode.

I did get to see the episode, and felt I was missing something since I couldn't recap the promo. Maybe I'll be able to get the one from this week, after the recap episode. It should be good.

I am fortunate to have good insurance and an employer who will work with my treatments. I know that I am lucky in this regard.

Having stuff from the library delivered to my chosen branch is my all-time favorite thing of the library. Whenever I think of something specific I want, I can put it on hold on line, and then they email me when I can come get it. It's FABULOUS -- I don't have to run all over town looking for specific books I want.

I am the same way, Jesse. I am a Public Library Fangurl to the nth degree. DVDs for 4 days (with one guaranteed renewal, so really for 8 days) -- free! Plus the library has VHS tapes of old movies and/or foreign movies that Blockbuster no longer has on the shelves.

CDs, comics, and, oh yeah -- BOOKS!!! Books on any subject you can think of, and you get to take them home with you!!! All for what amounts to a promise of "Yeah, I'll bring them back, I mean it!"

The public library system is one of the things that maintains my faith in humankind. I mean that.

Plus they have computers with access to the Internets that anyone can use, along with those amazing creatures known as librarians, who KNOW EVERYTHING. They really do.

Beej, insent.
