My week

If you think the week starts on Sunday, then mine started back in Indianapolis. I got up and made a pot of coffee in the room, wrote a blog post, and then got packed and dressed. I checked out and put my stuff in the car, although to find the car, I had to walk […]

Let me tell you about my day

First I went to a meeting that evidently had two agendas – the one that I was working from, that  said we were meeting from 9:00 to 10:30, and another one that said 9:00 to 11:00. I was so confused when the meeting ended at 10:50 and everyone said we were early. I had to […]

A long and outta whack week

  Our last day in Philadelphia, we went to the new Barnes Museum. I know there is a faction who believe that the collection should never have been wrested from Dr. Barnes cold dead hands – there’s even a documentary about it – but honestly, Barnes was such a control freak. He  wanted to utterly […]

Heigh Ho

It’s off to work we go. It’s Thursday afternoon and I’m sitting in my office waiting for a screen capture demo for my online searching course to upload to YouTube. I kind of have a headache, and the building is shaking from all the construction work outside, but there’s no point in leaving early, because […]

So, work […]

Back home but not quite back to normal –

Whatever that is – My brother’s writing about  the string of snow days in Seattle that disrupted his schedule, and I’m in Madison still feeling conference-time-shifted. For me, rather than snow storms, I think it’s the perfect storm of a long weekend in Dallas, including one twilight zone day, (capped off by Mark’s bout with […]

Just don’t feel that good

Here I am at work on the first day of spring break. I have a stack of applications to read, next year’s class of library school students, plus I have an assignment handed in in one of my online classes – applying subject headings to a record (description of an information resource) that the students […]

Lacuna

Not Barbara Kingsolvers newish book, that I am trying to read, but instead, a hole or gap in my day. That started with a 7:30 a.m. Co-op meeting – we looked at the audit report, which was actually a lot more interesting than it sounds. I actually wish the regular BoD meetings could be more […]
