My librarian aura is strong today
Left work (bringing box of Title stuff to deal with home with me, so I can do it this weekend) and went to public library to pay fines and pick up book on about-to-expire hold.
Got asked *twice* inside 5 minutes if I were a librarian.
Answered: "Yes, but not here - but maybe I can help you?" (in one case, it was helping man with vision issues navigate logging into library computer and get to Google, in other case, I couldn't, as it was a problem with a library card.)
Got, in the second case "Oh, but you look so official"
Like I said, every check mark on the library stereotype box, now checked. I am, for the record, wearing a black skirt, blue top, glasses, my hair in a braid down the back, and Lands End sandals.
Now, however, I do have an imminent headache, so I am going to feed it dinner, and curl up and be mindless. Tomorrow should involve a trip to the farmer's market and to the co-op, but I'm otherwise amazingly unscheduled this weekend.
(My other plans involve a thing for a brand new initiate, assuming she survives tomorrow night, and maybe talking to her Sunday, and the Title paperwork, and I hope, headache allowing, harping and writing and nice walks outside.)
