Re: Dear Diary/Journal/Bob 3.0
Bob, A coworker and I parted ways a few weeks ago, in terms of being friendly at work, because I put my foot down and said my staff didn't have time to help her with a project she was leading (it would, for full disclosure, be beneficial for the whole library but certainly not essential). I also sug...

Re: Dear You 2.0
Dear All of You, I know we're a small, quiet bunch now but you always have a piece of my heart. Always. 14, almost 15, years of companionship - and you gave me the love of my life - makes you rather unforgettable. Wishing everyone a very happy new year, filled with more joy than 2017 was able to del...

A little sad over the loss of AIM IMing soon. Most of my best conversations, with some of my best friends, took place over that service.

Re: Cause Workin' Out is 'fun' to do...
As a librarian, I'm my best reader.
25 seconds shaved off from the last run 4 days ago. 1.5 minutes to go before I match my time from my prime running days 14 years ago. That's not saying terribly much, I was never the fastest. Just steady/consistent.
