10 Things On A Thursday

1. My blue glass that I found at a rummage sale for fifty cents is actually worth...12 bucks.

While that's a bit of a disappointment, the good news is that if I and other people don't break the thing in the next half-century it'll probably be worth a couple times that.

I'll just keep drinking out of it, even though it's technically a creamer and it's just about as old as little me.

2. Grades are in. I passed Cataloging...barely.

3. Going to the nurse tomorrow to get a recommendation so I can get my hips checked out. I've been meaning to do so for almost a year now and I think I should do it while I have insurance. I've been popping and cracking more and more these last months and I really don't think that at 25 that should be happening.

I'm actually hoping there's something wrong, because I am gonna feel like a damn fool if there isn't.

4. Finished yet another section of shelves this morning and so I have organized approximately half the library, give or take a couple shelves. Don't know what Marie will put me on next, as the only things left are Fiction and Reference (that one will take me about two days.)

5. I got a nice free T-shirt yesterday that says Cheers London. And it's blue. It's such a very me shirt.

6. I am also extremely ready for Mum to get down here and find out that I've been stashing food for a week straight for her arrival. That includes Thin Mints in the freezer, unripe peaches in the fridge, German Chocolate Cake ice cream in the freezer, chocolate bars, tomatoes, an onion, potatoes, and I'm considering getting the lentil bowls in the next couple of days, too. Plus a chicken. And packaged oatmeal.

7. In terror that I might not have enough food, I might be going shopping on Sunday or Monday anyway.

8. Possibly both days.

9. I also have to clean like crazy. I've been having a bad week as far as roaches go; they are everywhere and I have been smashing their exoskeletons into pudding with any object that I don't value (hint: if you use enough force with an unopened box of packaged oatmeal, the roach does sustain damage. Also if you use the dishsoap bottle.)

10. Apparently I am not "working" behind the desk all day tomorrow. The Dean has requested that I take the last hour and go over to hand out bulletins at the graduation. I'm probably going to just lock up the library then since no one's going to be here (no one has today and it's just about noon. I predict tomorrow's gonna be about the same.)

11. It is very quiet round here. Might go get a cup of tea.

Ta,
Bec
