accomplished

I officially got to kick someone out of the library for the first time ever!!!! Woo Hoo!!!!

If you are an over weight, toothless 70 year old man, you have no business following a teenage boy. Just because I told you to leave him alone, this does not mean that you can then move on to following a 4 year old girl in a princess outfit. It means I will remove you from the building. HA!

Patron: Can you help me reservate a computer?

yeah....at least....

Patron: How can you stand working here? Don't you just want to check out and take home every book you see?
Me: Totally! I'm pretty sure our circulation statistics are all based on what the employees have at home!
Patron: At least you don't have a gambling addiction. I mean, you can't take your family to a casino.
   

Amazing Names Thursday

Ok, so I didn't actually meet this person in the library, but I thought her name was pretty darn Special.

Special is a member of the Xavier University Women's Basketball team and she has sisters named Treasure and Wonderful.

I couldn't resist. Sorry I didn't actually meet her, just saw her on T.V. 

100th post!

Thanks to all my readers! I don't even know most of you! Thanks for coming to the public library and asking questions, either good, bad, or just plain retarded. Thanks for letting me help you with your science project and thanks for flushing a copy of The Da Vinci Code down the toilet. Keep it comin'.

aaaaaaand.....no

Patron: Y'all got that movie where Sandra Bullock adopts a black guy?

She was, of course, referring to the newly released "Blind Side," in which a woman portrayed by Sandra Bullock adopts a black teenager into her home, but since this patron was making it sound like Sandra Bullock herself went to an orphanage and took home a 35 year old man, I said:

Me: I don't think so.
