My tasks today are to unpack suitcases (ugh), go through mail (not ugh, but boring), and work on putting together a scrapbook of my France trip (fun!) I think I'll do the mail first, just to get it out of the way and have something done. I've made a rule that I can't start working on scrapbook stuff until all my suitcases are unpacked.
Lydia: Its removal from Burma is a felony and when triggered it has the power to melt human eyeballs.
Giles: In that case I've severely underpriced it.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Bow before my librarian-fu: The patron approached wanting to know the name of a "country singer who died recently of throat cancer." Said singer had a song about falling out of bed and everybody laughing. He played the guitar and wore glasses.
The correct answer? Robin Gibb. (No, I never found out what the song about falling out of bed might have been.)

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
That is mighty mighty librarian-fu, flea.

Ann, that's a ferret.
The correct answer? Robin Gibb. (No, I never found out what the song about falling out of bed might have been.)
The song was almost certainly "I Started a Joke." Although falling out of bed, hurting his head was from a different part of the song than when he started to cry, which started the whole world laughing.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Unless the country is Australia.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Hence magicky.
GODDAMN, today is frustrating me.
Unrelated to that, I might get staff. I...I have been avoiding that diligently since Michigan. Countrywide specifically has IT career paths that avoid managing people, and you can get right up to under VP, which wasn't bad.
Maybe it would just be someone I am senior to, but adjacent to. That would be okay.
