Where do I buy this sign? I absolutely need it for my home. And as a fellow librarian, agreed.

I've been trying to lose weight for the last couple of years and have finally started to see small results from (UGH) calorie counting. I use the My Fitness Pal app to log my meals and I log all of my meals in at the beginning of the day so that I don't have any surprises at the end of the day. It hasn't been as bad…
I was raised in Kentucky by my Kentucky born and raised father and I'm marrying a Kentucky boy. We have all our teeth and we wear shoes! Sheeeeeeeesh. Stereotypes are boring and in Kentucky's case based on the effects of generations of extreme poverty and the ignorance of people outside Kentucky. You should visit…
And yet, somehow, pretty much every other industrialized nation in the world manages it.
Yep. I was having breathing issues due to allergies that meant I couldn't exercise or even walk up the stairs without breathing hard unless I took mucinex. I talked to my allergist about the treatment he had me on and that it wasn't fixing my breathing problems and he says: "I don't know what to tell you, your asthma…
We are talking about a man who created his own group to provide certification for opthamologists because he didn't feel like being retested under the American Board of Opthamology. He cheats his way through life.
So they should probably be pretty good at it then? Since, as you say, it is their job to fight for legislation and that is their main tool for doing so.
Yes.
Librarianship has long been the realm of women, that is why our society has little respect for the profession.
I think they have the same trouble most of us do. Dating sucks and it's hard to meet people. They just take it more personally and use their dating troubles as an excuse to insult the women they hope to date.
Ugh, seriously. My boyfriend has a dude friend who is a nice enough guy but seriously suffers from nice guy syndrome. He's a bit bigger and lives with his parents, not that that makes someone undateable, but he constantly posts on FB things like, "I don't like girls who cut their bangs straight across," then complains…
Damn my passion for this career! I can't imagine doing anything else, but I also see a difficult road ahead.
The New York Public library actually set up a photo booth so people could take Bookshelfies.
That's wonderful that your city is so supportive of libraries. My town has made headway updating buildings and technology, but staffing is being cut tremendously; something like 60% in the last few years. We are fortunate that many of us get our MLS paid for by the Library Foundation, however that means we have lots…
I have a supervisor, but it's not something any of us talk about and it's not something administration really acknowledges. I know people who actually work in social services or therapy, and it seems that self care is a part of their training and something they actively talk about at work. It seems to go…
Once a really cute guy came into my work to return some DVD's. We chatted for a bit, because he thought he owed some fines for a lost movie, but someone apparently found and returned it. He left and I thought to myself, "Wow, a guy like that would never go for a girl like me." Months later I joined the online dating…
I have a job that I absolutely adore, for the most part, but I have to say I'm suffering from compassion fatigue and it's affecting my personal life.I see so many kids living in poverty and I hear so many stories about their shit home lives and it breaks my heart. All I can do is read them a story and check out some…
I am so happy that indoor smoking is outlawed where I live. Being around cigarette smoke makes me ill for weeks. So I definitely hold a stigma against smokers, for reasons:
Skylar was certainly a flawed character, in a similar way that Walter, Hank, and Marie are all flawed charcters. The same can be said for Betty in Mad Men. The great TV of the last few years has been all about rooting for flawed (male) characters. Yet, fans just can't get behind the flawed women who are negatively…
