Carrot Cake

This is the second LIS assignment blog I've had, but this one seems more systematized with all that other online profile business.

As a favorite character says, Let's see what happens.

Some biographical background. I am a Madison native, a second year special student (it's complicated), in my fourth class at SLIS. I've worked in four libraries and six different departments. I don't feel like I've been flitting as much as that statement denotes. I would like to be a Reference librarian in an academic library when I grow up.

All through Johnson's This Book is Overdue (I won't dignify the attempt to coin a terrible word by including the subtitle) I found myself enjoying what she had to say about libraries and librarians, but I only felt any sort of spark or recognition when things were going wrong for the librarians. When the narrative went all "Gee whiz!" I was more alienated, especially during the second life section.

I made carrot cake today for my fathers 64th birthday, which was yesterday. Yesterday was a brainspike of Lord of the Rings extended edition (brainspike: watching the entirety of something in basically one sitting or at one go.) and oniondip. I seem to be beating cream cheese into other things to make delicious unhealthfulnesses this weekend.

Look for a post on the Week 2 Readings later tonight
