Librarian Pirate
Mother, Children's Librarian, me.
Missing Colorado's mountains but loving Chicagoland.
I think I'm in love with Rep. Diana DeGette, D, Colorado

homegirl just showed some mother fuckers how its done.
She’s one of my favorite people that I’ve ever met.
Last night I dreamt........That somebody loved me
Actually I dreamt I got the work ‘fuck’ tattooed on my shoulder, and woke in a panic because I could never wear vests in front of my mother again.
This is what happens when you work full time and study at weekends.
Last night I dreamt that I was out for a prix-fix meal and I got salad for two out of three courses, and everyone laughed at me.
This is what happens when you don’t eat enough vegetables.
Last night I drempt that my family was going to kill be because I had too many library books checked out, so I returned all but two. I had to keep those two hidden so they would never know - but they kept looking. I was effin’ terrified, man! But I wasn’t going to return those books. No siree bob.
I have to go to a party tonight.
I hate parties, because I cannot read at them if the people are boring me.
audiobook + mp3 player + tiny ear buds that make you feel like you’re in the secret service + the corner by the really good dip.
You know - I have family that is coming to visit soon and they would probably love love love to babysit while Brandon and I go to a movie (because really - my family comes to see the girls, not to see me. I’ve got some cute girls! I’m ok with this), so I’m thinking I might wait. If it’s still playing when they descend then it was meant to be. If not, then I’ll rent it later.
ACK!
I suck at decisions! Where the Wild Things Are is playing at the drive in tonight - and Fringe just came in on my library hold. I am SUCH a homebody and think tonight is a good night for vegging … but WTWTA! On the big screen! But Kaylee … cooped up in our van? UGH!
Brandon said it’s up to me. WHY oh why am I no good at making decisions?
I have spent far too much time today trying to compose the perfect Henry James LOLerature (he hasn’t already been done, has he?) - but … I am having trouble getting him to not be verbose.
I mean - Portrait of a Lady is all “HAI GUYZ! NEW WORLD N OLD WORLD IZ DIFFRENT!”
Then we get to The Golden Bowl and he’s all “The prince had always liked his old world in that it wasn’t not similar to the newer world which was not where he didn’t find himself embroiled in a LUV SQRE UV TEH CRAZIES”
That won’t all fit on his picture.
(yeah - so I'm on desk and didn't really vet that link. It was the first one after a google search and a quick scan showed that it gave more information about what was going on. It's also just a teensy bit biased.)

Thanks, LP. :)
(and by a little bit biased I mean fox news style biased.)

EMERGENCY: Representative Bart Stupak has just introduced an amendment to the health care reform bill that will eliminate coverage for women's health. I just called my representative and you should too. Call 202-703-9001 to ask him or her to reject the amendment!

FYI - Trader Joe’s sells frozen chocolate croissants. You take them out of the freezer at night, put them on the baking tray, then leave them in the oven overnight to puff up and in the morning bake them for 20 or so minutes. AMAZING!!! And only about a dollar a croissant.
(Mom - Marcia - ignore this. When you come to visit me and I am pulling chocolate croissants out of the oven just as you get to my apartment? I BAKED THEM! I spent FOREVER making them just as perfect as they are. No, really.)
In far more important news, however, I just sat with a friend while she got a tattoo and I’m jonsing like whoa. Now, I’m not saying I want to get the Cabbage Patch Kids Xavier Roberts signature tattooed on my ass, but that is what I’m saying.
Hijacking your thread for a moment … the comment on the blog you linked to is brilliant. BRILLIANT, I say. It reminds me of when Brandon worked as a waiter and one of his customers stopped him and said he was a psychic who had had a vision that would save Brandon’s life. The psychic told Brandon that his brother only hated him because his (Brandon’s) brother was gay and was jealous that Brandon’s perfect hair got him all the ladies. Brandon only has sisters …
it made me laugh and laugh and laugh.
ZOMG!!
WE HAZ UH FAMUHS!
Yo Faith, I’m really happy for you, and I’mma let you finish, but Nabokov wrote the greatest LOLerature of all time! OF ALL TIME.
(This is cool. I will buy the book, can I get a shout-out in that too?)
Word! When you get a book deal, I will buy the book and make sure that every library I work at has about 80 bazillion copies.
