Sorry I’ve been away for such a long time, folks.
Been busy … being a librarian!
Like Barbara Gordon in the old Batman TV show. Librarian by day, superhero by night. Biff! Pow!
Shhhh!
See how I did that. I told you I was a librarian.
I built my library today. That’s right. One day. A library. Talk about butch.
You can see pictures here:
It’s a Little Free Library (check out the website here). Basically, it operates on a take a book, leave a book philosophy. You can search the site to find Little Free Libraries near you.

Speaking of libraries, have you ever heard of that show The Librarians? I was all pumped. I mean, what could be better. I imagined a bunch of librarians wearing over-sized glasses with their dark hair in those sexy librarian buns. Library patrons would approach the desk and ask questions about books. And the librarians would pause and perhaps peruse the card catalog and then point them in the right direction. “I think you want The Brothers Karamazov,” they would say. Or, “Try Slaughterhouse-Five, that’s my favorite Vonnegut book.” This is a show I would watch.
But The Librarians is not that show. The books are magic. And there’s some sort of time travel involved. And the librarians do not have big glasses or sexy hair. Some are even dudes. I thought this was America. So disappointed.
Welcome as member of this very secret, but sought-after club. The password (shhhhh!) Is Dewey Decimal.
Got it. My lips are sealed. Will go back to sorting my card catalog until further instructions are sent.
Jackie is actually in the process of building a Little Library for our house. So jealous! You have my dream job.
Can’t wait to see yours. Post pics when you’re finished.
But … but … that sub-text between Cassandra and Eve … on my! 😀
Maybe I judged too soon. I am old and cranky … what can I say.
And, as I recall, there was an ‘alternate universe’ episode where they were in a relationship. 🙂
There you go … reeling me in.
Heh, heh, heh 😀
And just this last week we had Cassandra (the original, the Oracle) marry HER wives, plural … 😀
Okay, okay, you had me at just one wife. We are watching West World now, but will have to check out The Librarians after.
Late getting to your blog, but librarians are the stealth fighters of the age. Loved your little library~
Thanks. I love it, too. And yes, librarians are awesome.
