Good morning!

So, I had to come into work today at 8:45am today - which is a bummer for a Saturday, but hopefully I'll get a lot done. Normally we open at 11am, so I don't think it will be too busy before then.

I'm listening to Vampire Weekend this morning - I finally figured out how to use Grooveshark on this computer! Also, our library now uses Meebo (an online chat service) so patrons or other librarians can chat with us without leaving their home/office! And it doesn't rack up a phone bill! So I learned several new tech-y things!

Friday was fun - but we didn't do the corn maze since Mike is out of town (and we'd feel guilty if we went off without him). But I still didn't get any work done except for my laundry and some knitting. I think knitting goes faster than crochet, but who can tell when you suck at both?

Training is going on this morning, so Jersey is here learning about library things and projector things. They are all headed up to the fourth floor now, like duckies following the two training mommies!!! Hahaha!!!

The Reporter (the on-campus magazine that comes out weekly) has a section called "RIT Rings" where people can call or text in anything - and the funny stuff gets put in the paper. Anyways, this week there is a comment that goes like this:

Saturday 4:06 PM
I just heard a freshman telling other freshmen that there is a "secret" floor in the Wallace Library... which is just the fourth floor. Oh, freshmen."

And the moment I read that, I thought of two things - 1) Joanna would say something like that and 2) we changed our name from the Wallace Library to The Wallace Center.

I think I miss Joanna and have been working here waaayyyyyy too long....

On the bright side, my dad just called my mom and told her that he had finished hiking the Grand Canyon - and he sounds really healthy and alive! She's super-happy that he called her, and we can't wait for him to come back home on Sunday with all his friends.

I should probably start working on my homework now - or at least finish answering my email.

I'll close with a quote today from lovely little lady:

"Enjoy the weather before it gets too cold, and take care of your feet and teeth. When they hurt, you can't smile very well." - Mom
