Sorry, Captain. I'm real sorry. I shoulda kept better care of her. Usually she lets me know when something's wrong. Maybe she did, I just wasn't paying attention...

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
Today at the library:
1 internet computer was dead( out of 7)
One phone line was dead - the one that is published for the public
a door fell apart ( it was just the thingee that controls the speed it shuts - but it was dangling down and banging on the door so I had to tape it in place so it didn't break the glass)
The self check out computer died
We found out 14 year olds with guns tried to rob one of the houses behind the library on Monday
a mouse was acting - we took it apart to clean it - springs everywhere- So we had to steal a mouse from the computer I prefer to use.
It turns out that my computer profile is not set up properly at work . An hours worth of work was saved to a mysterious place - that we could only find when I stole a mouse from another computer.
One co-worker was out sick .
another was high on migraine meds ( She did fine, but wasn't her usual strangely perfect self)
I had an empty gas tank. I went to get gas - My ATM card did not behave in the outside machine. I had no cash. They do not take charge cards. Luckily it did work when I used the inside machine.
I am drinking rum now

I used to work in a library in IL and we'd get a mousie invasion in the fall when it started to cool down .

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Quite a while, IIRC, Laga. Maybe a month? More?

Squirrels in the attic! We had them at my parents' house in Illinois, too. We called the humane society for help in getting rid of them and they suggested putting a pan with rags soaking in vinegar up there to drive them away. When that didn't work we called the Willowbrook Wildlife Haven and they suggested that if we could find a recording of the Great Horned Owl and play that for them they might be scared away as the great horned owl is their number one predator. I checked out a tape of bird calls from the library and when I opened the box a little note fell out that had the Wildlife Haven's number as well as the words, "rags soaked in vinegar". The squirrels eventually left of their own accord and we put wire mesh over all the attic access points.
ETA: thanks ita!
