eccentrici

I've never loved Alanis any more than right now.

So, I've been gafiating. I've really lost touch with everyone on LJ and I apologize. It seems like this happens every few months. I'm going to try to catch up on my journal reading and commenting this weekend.

I'm still not completely unpacked. It's been 5 months since we officially moved and almost two months since we cleaned out the house. Still not unpacked. I tried. Okay, I read and played video games and sorted through old college papers. That sort of counts as unpacking.

Speaking of packing, comic long boxes suck. They hold a ton of comics but try moving them. I can lift about 50 pounds easily but there was no was way I could lift a full long box. In the end, I split up the long boxes so now I have to reorganize all my comics.

Why are old people obsessed with the air conditioning unit? My mother keeps asking me if the A/C is running upstairs. I have not earthly idea. It's a pretty quiet unit. Plus, I'm not paying attention.

The other day, CrazyPhoneLady called and asked if we had any "Wanted" posters because she wanted to come get them. Unfortunately, one of my coworkers told her that we don't have any such posters and even if we did, we wouldn't give them away to the public. I can't believe we missed an opportunity to meet her.

A few moments later, she called back and wanted to know which street sign was an octagon. Before I could answer her, her husband picked up the phone causing her to screech, "Harvey, I'll be down in a minute to fix your spaghetti!" I told her that a "Stop" sign was an octagon and an extremely creepy male voice (thing Vincent Price) thanked me and hung up.

An hour later, she called and told me that she was "not at liberty to use the phone", but she wanted to reconfirm that a stop sign was an octagon and ask me about the shape of a railroad crossing sign.

My answers to the questions were seriously edited and I managed to out myself with the last answer (it's not what you think).

Finally, I have a new journal devoted to my library related ramblings. Right now, the only post I have up is an article on ALA and YALSA that I was required to write for our library system's internal newsletter. Just friend
