Have you ever considered all the tedious stuff a librarian and their clerk do? You have to be organized and detailed oriented. I'm not. I can fake it most of the time. The majority of the stuff, cataloging, checking in, checking out, processing new materials, magazines, bibliographies for teachers, counting class sets for teachers and on and on.
So glad it's a long weekend.
The nice thing about the first week of school is that they throw in Labor Day weekend as a reward once you get through it.
I didn't go swimming this morning. I did wake up but figured I better sleep while I could.
I'll go this weekend.
It was still 70 when I got up. I'm sure it's over 85 now inside my library. It's not a day to carry and move books. I've got kids doing a lot of the lifting. i came in early this morning too.
The 1/2 and 1/2 I had in the frig has curdled it is so warm. Yesterday it was fine for my cereal. Today, it poured out solid, curdled in the frig and today was the due pull date. ICK!
There is a happy hour after school and I don't want to go even if the principal is buying the first round.
All I can think about is immersing my body in a cold tub of water or pool.
We have a lot of kids who didn't turn in their textbooks so I'm not checking out books to them. Legally we have to check out books but a little fear gets the books back or the fines paid.
O.k. I did go to have a drink at the last minute and stayed am hour; enough time for a Cosmopolitan and some bar food to sop it up so I didn't drive home drunk in rush hour. They didn't have a blender so no frozen drinks. I got my socializing in.
A lot of people were drinking different types of beer. Bar food is all fried and the virtuous stayed away from potato skins, french fries, calamari,fried cheese and zucchini. The only thing healthy was the orange in my drink and the celery that came with the wings.
I came in nuked 5 chicken terriaki meatballs and had some cheese and crackers and fell asleep.
