random thoughts

I'll post a more impressive blog tonight but I'm falling asleep at lunchtime at work and thought a blog posting would liven me up. I know I should go for a run around the block instead, as Annette suggested. Too lazy, too much in love with technology. Ah well.

Things I couldn't care less about:

March Madness

95% of the people featured in People magazine

NASCAR



Things of vital, or at least substantial importance:


DVDs of Howl's Moving Castle came into the library this week!!

Are either of our houseplants toxic to cats? (More on why that is important later.) We have a philodendron and some two-tone thing that grows delicate little white flowers on spikes when I cut it back like crazy.

Spring is coming! Daffodils are here! Mary put a big red-and-white pitcher of them on the Information Desk. I blew $10 on herb, flower and bok choy seeds at Whole Foods yesterday

Lois McMaster Bujold doesn't have anything far along in the pipeline that I know of. 8-(

On the other hand, Vol. 2 of Loveless is coming out in June.


In other news...
this afternoon I was in the back room at work troubleshooting a problem we've been having with the check-in part of our cataloging system, trying to re-create the problem. Suddenly my coworkers heard me shout: "Dammit, it's working!"
