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.)
That is mighty mighty librarian-fu, flea.

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.
Oh my god, completely unexpected earworm.

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.
