I'm at the desk this morning--because, you know, plenty of teens come into the library during the day on a Monday. The lights are still dim since we're not open yet--they don't turn on the overhead lights until nine, so that page who doesn't shift the books, and who thinks that the shelves should be bookended as tightly as possible, has to work in semi-darkness. There's a really nerdy supervillian in that somewhere. Villain? Villian?
I got a phone message from an old (boy) friend and talked to the x-boy this weekend. One made me so happy it's confusing and the other just left me confused. Did I mention that neither of these people is within 100 miles of ***? (oooo, I'm trying to be secretive about where I am--damn you, Google, for indexing so well!) This is a mess, and I can't shake the feeling I'm staring down another enormous dry spell.
The Book and Music Exchange I tried to explore on Saturday has exorbetant (sp?) prices on their vinyl. I thought cultureless Midwestern cities had that kind of crap for cheaper, b/c no one wants it. C'mon, $6 for Culture Club? $8 for Twisted Sister!? Luckily, the Goodwill on the tonier side of town still believes in fifty cents per scratched 45. I found: "Leader of the Pack", "Henry the VIII", "Along Comes Mary" and "Fever". And two glasses to (finally!) start my prom souvenir glass collection. And a $3 end table which I'm painting and turning into a TV stand. So all-in-all, pretty good thrifting.
How do other blogspot people have links? I want links.

We have a page who won't shift, either. Wreaks havoc on my YA section. Why is it so hard for them to do? They have to be at work for their whole shift, anyway. I don't get it.
