Ramblings of a Children's Librarian
We had a program. When it was over I walked up to a little girl and asked her if she had fun
Almost 3 year old: No I didn't.
I laughed so hard....because I knew she really had fun, and saw what all she had done, and it was so very funny.

Called my boss. Told her we didn't have 3 books off the Bluebonnet list. And I wanted to make sure they got ordered.
Missing: 1, Don Quixote, Haiku Ew! and Pedro's YoYo, I said now there's more to it, meaning the title, each title had MORE to the title than what I listed off to her.
She calls back in 10 minutes, stated she had found 2 were on backorder and 1 she was unsure if she had ordered. Now on this one called More to it, who was the author? I said WHAT? She said I am looking for the book More to it....I said no...it's not a book, I meant there was MORE TO THE TITLE than what I said over the phone.

Today went walking (because I don't have a car) to First Baptist to walk at least 34 times around the gym. (Almost 2 miles) I leave and am walking back towards the Library and I have ONE traffic light I reach each time going/coming to walk during lunch to and from First Baptist Church. I get to the light, hit it to let me know when it is SAFE to cross the street.
I hear the noise alerting me to cross the street, and about that SAME TIME, I hear a gruff voice screaming at me WHILE HE IS JAY WALKING HIS BICYCLE across the street, and He says, Get out of the d*** highway, I looked him square in the face. and he continues. Get out the d*** highway, it ain't your birthday.
Me still staring at him.
He was so loud people across the street the opposite direction from me at the bank are now staring at us.
Good times.
