Today is the kind of day where we've only been open about half an hour and already I kinda want to punch people. Just a little.*

But instead of dwelling on that, I am going to focus on happy things! Here are some things that are making me happy today.

1) Doctor Who! I have been listening to Big Finish things for a few days now and rewatching Seventh Doctor episodes (Ace!) and all is full of joy.

2) It's possible that I may have changed my ringtone on my phone to the disco remix of the Blake's 7 theme. It seemed like a good idea at the time. My phone doesn't ring very often but every time it does, it makes me smile.

3) I have some sort of pastry with nutella in it to eat with dinner. Sometimes the pastries from my grocery store are a little disappointing but I cannot imagine anything can go wrong with something containing nutella.

4) I have to work on Saturday, but I have Sunday off and the familia is driving down to Oregon so my grandmother can visit my great-aunt, so I will have the house to myself. As that's the closest to August 1st that I have time and space to celebrate, I am declaring this Sunday to be Lammas and will be making bread and possibly fried apples. I haven't made bread in forever - I am excited.

5) We have this patron who has an extensive garden and sometimes, he brings us vegetables at the library. Lately, he has been harvesting garlic. So I have a head of home-grown garlic in my bag to take home.

What is making you happy today?





*Man, I hate the AR program. Not in and of itself, necessarily, but because the schools don't give us their AR lists and so we have kids who come in, not knowing what books they're looking for but only knowing that they want a "2.9 book". Which, I have no idea what that is.

We post our AR list on the school website, so the kids can check it at the library or the bookstore or home or whatever. Your schools might do that too. I don't know if the district gives copies to the public library or not since we have one entire librarian in the district currently it's possible they may not have time to keep it updated.
