Why is it that to get task A done, it seems that you always have to get tasks B, C, D, E, and sometimes a goodly chunk of F done first, which very effectively eats up all your available time, so at the end of the day, you never actually did get task A done? I've been noticing this more and more lately and it's starting to annoy me. After an entire morning of this nonsense, I decided to just chuck the whole thing and go for a nap. I get settled in, do a bit of reading, doze off, and then 20 minutes later I wake up with a dream-voice echoing in my head, "Everything will be okay if you keep thinking of llamas!!" So now all I can think of are llamas. Why llamas? I have no idea. I think that might be my new motto to confound my detractors:
Keep thinking of llamas!
And to help with that, here's the Llama Song. |

I've seen a few odd things so far this week (and it's only Monday!), so I thought I'd share. the first is a pair of leopard snakeskin shoes. Yes, boys 'n' girls, leopard AND snakeskin at the same time. The mind boggles at how they managed to breed leopard with snake to get this. Maybe it was some mad geneticist who always wanted to be a fashionista? Genetically engineer a snakeskinned leopard specifically for the purpose? The mind still boggles.
Also, for all of you Zombie Librarians out there in Canada, there's now a site for you: The Canadian Zombie Librarians' Association! Gotta love it. Apparently it's "all things undead and zombie" that's been picked out especially for those librarians working with this under-represented segment of the library community. Good on ya, guys!! Keep up the good work!

Billy Joel said it all, and much better than I can:
"You're having a hard time and lately you don't feel so good
You're getting a bad reputation in your neighborhood
It's alright
it's alright
Sometimes that's what it takes
You're only human
you're allowed to make your share of mistakes
You better believe there will be times in your life
When you'll be feeling like a stumbling fool
So take it from me you'll learn more from your accidents
Than anything that you could ever learn at school
Don't forget your second wind
Sooner of later you'll get your second wind
It's not always easy to be living in this world of pain
You're gonna be crashing into stone walls again and again
It's alright
it's alright
Though you feel your heart break
You're only human
you're gonna have to deal with heartache
Just like a boxer in a title fight
You got to walk in that ring all alone
You're not the only one who's made mistakes
But they're the only thing that you can truly call your own
Don't forget your second wind
Wait in that corner until that breeze blows in
You've been keeping to yourself these days
Cause you're thinking everything's gone wrong
Sometimes you just want to lay down and die
That emotion can be so strong
But hold on
Till that old second wind comes along
You probably don't want to hear advice from someone else
But I wouldn't be telling you if I hadn't been there myself
It's alright
it's alright
Sometimes that's all it takes
We're only human
We're supposed to make mistakes
But I survived all those long lonely days
When it seemed I did not have a friend
Cause all I needed was a little faith
So I could catch my breath and face the world again
Don't forget your second wind
Sooner or later you'll feel that momentum kick in
Don't forget your second wind
Sooner or later you'll feel that momentum kick in" |
