So, apparently the Kingston Community Center is still closed for repairs. But today, instead of just telling us to stay home and use Emergency Closure hours, my boss is sending us to the Little Boston branch.

And, okay, I am totally cool with the idea that they have us and are paying us, so they should put us to work. I just don't know what the hell we're going to do there. I mean, Little Boston is already staffed, y'know? With people who actually work at that branch and know how things work there. It's not like we're subbing for people who are out sick or whatever.

Two of my least favorite work related things are not having enough to do and not knowing what to do. One is boring and the other makes me extremely anxious. I'm trying to stay positive at this point but I cannot help worrying that today is going to turn out to be hell.

In which I am not like other people:

So, a week or so ago, I checked out Bonk by Mary Roach because sex + science = pretty fascinating. And I've been enjoying reading it. And then, this week, I got another book by her - Stiff, because corpses + science = also fascinating. I am enjoying that one also.

What I have discovered over the course of reading them is that while I have no problem eating while reading descriptions of the decay and putrefaction of human organs (like chicken soup!), I am not actually capable of eating while reading about semen, even when couched in the driest and most scientific terms.

So that is my asexual!Sara thought of the day. Putrefying corpses - in some ways, less icky than sex.*





*I mean, if you are into sex, awesome. Seriously, good for you. I am not judging! But, y'know...fluids. Icky.
