Happy Birthday Plei!

Sparky, how'd you manage to ban someone before you opened?

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Happy Plei Day!

What did the banee do, Sparky?

Hippo birdies, Plei!!!!

Jesse, glad to hear it arrived.

MM became exasperated quickly with this line of questioning, even though in a marriage the other partner is supposed to listen intently and with empathy to his partner's deepest needs. He'll have to work on that so he can love me better.

Does Aimee know about this?

Shit's all sorts of different now.

I do. And I agree. Hee!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY PLEI!!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Birthday Happies Plei!!

What did the banee do, Sparky?

This morning we found hundreds of pages from looseleafs (some from the stacks, some from reserve) all stacked up on a book cart willy-nilly with a note stuck on it that said, "Please do not touch, doing research." It's going to take some unlucky tech services student many hours of tedious labor to refile all those pages. He's a local lawyer, he's done other unacceptable things before (like taking Lexis and Westlaw print outs waiting for pick up by the students), and he's had a warning about co-opting carrels and materials, so I decided this was destructive enough that we should just ban him. I love that we can actually do this here, since at my last employment we had to wait for a patron to do something truly criminal before we could even get that far.

Perkins, insent about MWu's free time at AALL yesterday. Did you see Jennifer in LV?

Random photo of the day: Cosmonauts urinating on a bus (Worksafe)

Apparently cosmonauts urinate on the wheels of the bus that carries them to the launch site - a pre-flight good-luck ritual.

Mmm, rage.

Am still on a high. In a bad way. Managed to obliquely call maintenance manager a liar and not so obliquely, incompetent.

Property manager pissed on my behalf.

Raaaage.

Also, wondering if corporate will contact them. I'm probably getting myself blackballed.

Large ‘Planet X’ may lurk beyond Pluto

An icy, unknown world might lurk in the distant reaches of our solar system beyond the orbit of Pluto, according to a new computer model.

The hidden world — thought to be much bigger than Pluto based on the model — could explain unusual features of the Kuiper Belt, a region of space beyond Neptune littered with icy and rocky bodies. Its existence would satisfy the long-held hopes and hypotheses for a "Planet X" envisioned by scientists and sci-fi buffs alike.
