Today, I had to actually stop a kid from doing cartwheels in the library, while her grandmother stood right next to her and watched, while complaining that we didn't have any books in our tiny library specifically on doily making*.

People are inexplicable.




*We offered to put books on doily making on hold - no good. We offered to find and print patterns from the internet - no good. She was amazingly offended that we had no books on hand to offer her. It was pretty astounding.

Dodgy. The "putting stuff on hold" is my favourite part of my local library. It's an awesome way to set and forget what you want to read / watch.

They seem like someone surprised that Lake Woebegone is not the actual place they live and that their child is not necessarily perfect in all ways.

People are strange.
