Hah--I was just thinking of you Sparky (and Lee) because over the weekend one of the people I saw was a friend of mine from drag, who was a lawyer, then went to library school, and now works at the Louisiana Supreme Court library.
Y'all see the man hanging out of the spaceship with the really big gun? Now I'm not saying you weren't easy to find. It was kinda out of our way, and he didn't want to come in the first place. Man's lookin' to kill some folk. So really it's his will y'all should worry about thwarting.

I am being tempted. 8-5 and decent pay are very tempting. And I am very smart and can learn stuff fast. Actually my superpower is very very quickly absorbing and synthesizing information. Saying that politely in a cover letter is perhaps tricky.
This morning the truck that delivers books to consortial libraries all across the state crashed into a pastry store a block from the library. The driver may have had a seizure but appears uninjured in the crash; the pastry store has a big hole in it but nobody was hurt; the bins of books seem to be all over the sidewalk, judging from news pictures.

My cats are making it impossible to accomplish anything. They keep sleeping cute on me. The vacuum will not run itself.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Go for it, flea! What's the downside to applying?
Yikes on the crash!

Yay no one was hurt but--oh, the pastries! The books! Two things I love the most, in pain! Sadness.

Busken, or Servatii? (Clearly you can see how often I go downtown.)
t edit And, you know, either one would still be tragic. So I'm mostly asking to get a vicarious tour of downtown. Or at least that corner.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That seems like a pretty straightforward thing to say in a cover letter! You can talk about different contexts in which you've worked, and how you quickly absorbed and synthesized the information there.

Servatii at Court and Walnut. There was apparently a lot of smoke, so the pastries are, um, toast.

How's the new job, Gud?
The new job is going well so far. It's a newly-formed team and the project is a complete software rewrite from scratch so there's a lot of work.
