I want to go home...

[zallia]

I have absolutely no enthusiasm for work today. Usually I can fake cheerfulness and enthusiasm pretty well, but I just feel too drained at the moment. It didn't help that the internet messed up 15 mins before opening and I had to call Cableone to find out WTF was going on w/out knowing any of our account information. And for you guys that don't know, Sundays are freaking insane for free computer use here and are constantly full with hour waits for the whole afternoon. Does everyone know I work at the public library? I try not to talk about work much in case coworkers stumble upon it.

Anyhow, I want to order the Heroes OST and Amazon seems like the best place to go, but I've been getting upgrade offers for my Amazon Visa, but since it requires a call-in and I hate calling, I've put it off, but I finally sucked it up last night. There doesn't seem to be any hidden fees or anything, it will just increase all the points I currently get (it will now be 3 for amazon purchases, 2 for dining/gas/etc, 1 for others) and for the first 90 days, I get triple all of that. So I want to order my Heroes cd, but it makes sense to just go for the $25 and get the free shipping right? Which means I need 11.01 in the cart. A graphic novel seems perfect for that and so I can get more Fables, but it alternates and it seems every other one is 10.53 or 12.35. No clue why. Guess I'll have to wait til tonight since I forgot which ones I got for my birthday.

And I've got one more doll in the mail....it's a really good deal though! Nah-ahto for $50+10 shipping, already on a marrone obitsu! I resisted temptation and didn't get Nero(though she had her for 60 and offered 50 and was shot down, it was worth a try!), but now Ms. Imp has me questioning that decision, but TIB seems to have fallen off the internet, so I guess it's a moot point.

I should be putting up a half-assed display for Banned Books Week and working on the schedule, but it's so much easier to procrastinate...*sigh*

*offers kitty in arms method of procrastination* Makes it very difficult to do anything but love her. Or be shredded if she catches sight of either dog and decides to panic. Still, that would give you a valid reason for not doing whatever it is you're s'posed to be doing. :p

I would gladly do it that way, but I'm at work so no kitties. :( Just reading TV forums and shopping online. I got the schedule done at least and got a list of some of our banned books, so now it's just making some sort of flyer or whatever for the display. Oh I passed out the pins to the staff, too. Woo, productive!

Kitty doesn't travel well, or I'd shriek "road trip!" Ignoring, of course, the fact that it would take forever. *cough* All hail productive work!

So, what banned books do we celebrate?

Aw, you could totally stay with me if you roadtripped out to visit. I'd take time off work for that!

Well, since I'm a librarian who doesn't even read, I'm pretty much just consulting my Books Banned in 2007/08 guide, picking random ones and then if they come up in the catalogue, sold! I was tempted by the Willy the Sperm book, but that seems a little too distasteful for the front desk. Oh and there's the Harry Potter standard of course. Every year, every book...

It's a very scientific method you've got there. *nod*

Ah, banning HP. Wizards and werewolves and going to hell in a handbasket, oh my!

Hey you read just as much as the next librarian...assuming I'm the next librarian we're talking about. :D

Also video games these days are loaded down with lots of talky text so I get in plenty on those. Plus the occasional graphic novel or manga.
