Last night N- and I went duckpin bowling with our department at work. This morning my righthand pinky is severely bruised and the nail is dark blue. *sigh* I swear! I'm the only person I know who can get injured bowling ( Read more... )

LJ isn’t recognizing my browser to do rich-text format today. Weird. Okay, whatever.

Yesterday some members of the Library Student Organization (including myself) took a trip to Bloomington to tour some of the libraries. ( Read more... )

I had intended to go to Butler yesterday for a project for class but was feeling lazy and stayed home with N- for the afternoon.  I had packed a vegan brownie (attempt #2) for springseain with my stuff for the LSO meeting, but left the room.  I didn't ( Read more... )

I love fall.  As I walk around, look at the falling leaves, and feel the light breeze, I am transformed into a calmer, happier gal.  I swear!

I think we had a fairly successful first meeting of the ALA SC yesterday.  There were fewer people than I was hoping for, but still what I would call a fair turnout.  We played our dorky game and got ( Read more... )

I finished watching the first season of Gilmore Girls on DVD.  It was great, since I was in the mood for sappy and witty.  I shouldn't have watched the Special Features (normally my highlight of watching TV shows on DVD) because it really slammed  home the idea that the actors are not their characters.  I know this to be true, but for some reason, ( Read more... )

I actually left work somewhat on time today.  I decided before going to work that today I would learn to manage my stress.  I'm not sure if it is that decision or the actual stress that made everything better, but today was a good day.

I'm actually still "at work," but I got off at 3.  I'm working on html stuff for my class.

I had a crazy dream ( Read more... )

Wow, just realized I wrote a long entry but didn't talk about school.  My only non-online class started today.  It was good to see lojeweltus , refmansbn , librarygal , hellokitty138 , and springsea , but class seemed strange without phantomrain , bridgie1999 , sephina , TCTTHTLS and TCTTHTLS'married girlfriend.  The only two guys in the class had babies this summer!  I would have said class seemed strange without spk1121 , but he ( Read more... )

The plumber came yesterday and we now have no sludge churning out of the shower drain.  Good thing, because I needed a shower!  Apparently roots had grown into the pipes somewhere, although the city completely tore up our yard last spring, cutting down trees and killing our lawn to replace the pipes for the same reason.  Go figure ( Read more... )

I got out of class a little early, and got to the fountain ahead of librarygal .  I enjoyed listening to the water, feeling the sun, and watching the falcon/hawk on top of a globe light.  I keep telling myself I need more time like that, and there it was.  Just dropped into my lap.  On the way back, I chitchatted with a stranger (which I used to do more ( Read more... )
