It's snowing in Tennessee.
I don't fancy spending the next month trying to get librarian out of the carpet.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Terrible in terms of scenery?
Yep, the works -- scenery, crappy sidewalks, exhaust, etc.
A1A just makes me think of Vanilla Ice.

Come visit! It is 78F at the moment, although they claim it will only be 68F tomorrow.

Ann, that's a ferret.
I woke up to 2-3" of snow on the car this morning. 68F would be fine with me.

We drive on A1A often. The joggers, bikers, and beach bums are pleasant scenery. Those that have driven the strip in Fort Lauderdale in the past may not realize that a significant chunk of A1A was lost to Hurricane Sandy. Not like New Jersey level damage, but there is a section now where there is no beach at all and just a seawall next to the road. They reduced it from 4 lanes to 2 in that area to make the seawall. I'll find a picture...

Because books.
I have to say, 60 would be fine with me at this point.
Stupid "spring."

I was just remembered of the time in college I misguidedly took an honors English class (it was all English majors; I was not) and had to open my mouth in class to say that April REALLY IS the cruelest month! Especially in New England! Where Eliot was living when he wrote that! It's about the weather.

It's been snowing steadily all day and there's basically no accumulation. Very strange.
My interview went ok. I think the biggest problem is my lack of public library experience. It was really hard to talk about my work experience without everything being, "when I was at X academic library..." since that is the experience I have. They asked me how I felt about the atmosphere, which seemed like code for "you noticed 80% of the people in the building today are homeless or unemployed guys who have no place to go, right?" Yes, I did, and I did wonder if some of the staff are DYING for a question about, like, 17th century French poetry sometimes, and if I would be one of them in a couple of years.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Just got back from my interview at Sony (Shout out to my interview sister, Flea). It was with one person there and one skyping in from Vancouver. I think the US person dug me, but the Canadian person didn't. Not really crossing my fingers on this one.
