I never had an admin I could rely on (we didn't have any in my last library) and truly, admins make the world go round. We're all incredibly serious when we say we couldn't do anything without ours in my current library.

Also if you don't want media attention, don't be a politician. I'm nobody, and no one writes about me. It's that easy!

I went to pick up pizza from the place downstairs, since Brett and I got home at 6AM from the airport, slept and are now generally confused about everything. Pizza’s great, though.

He asked us if we had anything to declare, and my partner was like “I got this hat” and I felt the suppressed eyeroll. We were all having a bad time, friend!

Yes and it was seriously fucking annoying to explain this when I cited being a certified JBI reviewer in a memo and they were like “what does it stand for?” WELL

We talk about how much I love my cat a lot…and she’s definitely trying to get me to realize our work is like me trying to teach the cat. Rude.
