the major blues
Posted: October 21st, 2020 | No Comments »didn’t get a grant that i applied for, feeling incredibly overwhelmed, not sleeping well, waiting on my COVID results. what a mess it all is. i never wanted to be library director and here i am about to burn down the whole library accidentally when all i wanted was to read to kids.
doesn’t this grant acceptance/rejection email seem particularly rude? put us in this long list and then put NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO next to our names? i do NOT approve.

upside/downside
Posted: October 18th, 2020 | No Comments »downside!!!!! my coworker tested positive for COVID on friday. she’s been out sick all week, but she says she’s feeling better, hope it holds. i haven’t seen her since october 9, and i’m feeling fine, but — symptoms can develop between 2-14 days, so, basically it’s rude. another rude thing — you can either have mad symptoms, or no symptoms, or light symptoms — all the options! just seems pretty rude. so i’m been feeling phantom symptoms (“is my chest feeling tight? my throat is kind of hoarse!”) and worrying a bunch about infecting patrons unwittingly, very cool. also doesn’t it seem insane that it’s 2020 and our prevention methods have not much improved since the old days? basically stay inside, wear a mask, wash your hands, godspeed. upside is i get to work from home for two weeks, which means not QUITE so much rushing; no lunch planning (as much as my lunches have been planned, very loose use of the word); mad sweatpants; general home civility.
i hope we all make it

making a ruff
Posted: October 10th, 2020 | No Comments »i was searching for how-to videos about making quills (lol) (for my library video) (might try it, if i can find a good feather?) but then stumbled upon this one: making a ruff. which delighted me and intrigued me and also just — weird. this is a sad screenshot from it. #mood
