So it’s a bit dramatic. Oh well. That’s life. I got my first call in response to my cold-mailing letters of interest to libraries. It’d be a drive. No more walking to work if I did get it, but it would be the first step towards getting that experience I so desperately need.
I can’t begin [...]

Bad sleep last night
Posted in Uncategorized on July 28, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
I feel gross. Lack of sleep. I believe that says it all. The reasons don’t matter, just the outcome.
I’m at the j-o-b and it was once again a matter of stubborn resolve conquering my insane need to not be here. I’ve been productive and now I feel even more sick from lack of sleep. I [...]
How a home is like a library; or Accessibility…

My mum is going to laugh over this one. So, likely, is anyone who knows me and my husband in real life.
I’m reading a book on school cataloging. For fun. For my own interest. (Does anyone still question my true calling in life, because beyond being a mother, I think this one is the second [...]
Message to Jenny and the other moms out there

First off, Jenny! I am so proud of you for making the change so you can have more time with your family. I’m absolutely with you on this one. Full-time work and school and family is a tough combination. Finding ways to make it, even when you get hit in the shorts because of the [...]
He’s ready, but I’m not OR How come I feel like the worst mother in the world

Ok. I’m getting weepy again. I’ll add this caveat to what I’m about to write: I’m in the midst of PMS and yes, there is chocolate on my desk.
My friend at work mentioned today the ads for school supplies and school clothes are starting to show up and it hit me – Oh crap! I [...]

I read a lot of Jim Jubak’s Journal and this one, in particular, caught my attention.
Todd and I watch the financial markets quite closely, mostly out of morbid curiosity at this point, as we’re not in a position to do much else. But this is an instance where I really hope the US Government handles [...]
Lost in space

I really don’t know if it would be possible to be more lost than I am right now. See? I’m sitting here, unable to even find the words to express where I am right now.
Ok, so physically I’m at work, but 100’s of thousands of drones have proven that you can be at a location [...]
Can I please go home now?

Even with running Bren around to theater camp this morning and the fact that it got me out of the house, I still feel like the day is dragging. Can I please, please, please go home now?
So… on Friday afternoon I talked with one of the higher-ups here in our office and expressed my concern [...]
Just got my butt kicked

I’m trying some new workout dvd’s. Yeah, I know. Hope springs eternal… I chose these because the odds of my getting out to go dancing any time soon are so low as to need a microscope to read them. Between Todd’s schedule and the two munchkins, I’m pretty much house-bound on weekends. That’s only going [...]
Oh crap, one more thing

Ok, first, so I don’t lose any momentum with it, please (please, please, please) read my post called Perspective. I’m gaining some.
I did want to make a brief update on the ultrasound yesterday. I’m healing well from the surgery and it looks like my old friends, the Ovarian Cysts, have rejoined me. Knowing that’s all [...]
