I'm now tired. And today was another day. What happened? Well, the
same old thing really.
This morning I had classes in the lab and when I didn't I did other
things. I emailed the PR lady at the public library because we
agreed on me coming in on Mondays (if my background check cleared)
and in my excitement about volunteering, and getting a new library
card, I forgot that I get my hair cut every four weeks on a Monday.
I suggested coming in on Tuesday or Thursday those weeks and she said
Thursday would work. A little while later she emailed me and said my
background check had cleared, asked for my emergency contacts, and
said she would be speaking to the HR lady later in the day to
hopefully finalize the paperwork. So it's looking like my
volunteering adventures will start next Monday. I'm looking forward
to it.
I also emailed the electronic resources librarian I interviewed
earlier in the semester to ask her about some of the questions
regarding image databases that my partner and I have to answer this
week. While doing my own research I came up with a few questions of
my own so I decided to go right to the source rather than trying to
find an article about it. Turns out most of my questions were more
related to collection development so she forwarded my questions to a
collection development librarian. I haven't heard back yet but I'm
hoping to get a response by tomorrow. We'll be good without it but
it's really for my own curiosity.
This afternoon we had a third grade performance. It was filled with
little kid choreography, which is my favorite thing, and it did not
disappoint. One kid in the front row, who can be rather annoying
because he's really smart and I think is bored most of the time (but
also because he's kind of an asshole, which most kids are), never
really stopped moving or dancing throughout the whole performance.
And it was the most awkward looking dancing. Kind of like he had to
pee. The main soloist in the performance was the Art teacher's
daughter and she killed it. I was really surprised and I think a lot
of people were. I was standing in the back with one of the first
grade teachers and we just looked at each other and said “wow”.
In my free time today I edited pictures and I think made it through
three or four. Not bad.
After work I headed over to my Dad's house because the low tire
pressure light came on in my car yesterday or the day before. I went
in and we talked for awhile before going out to fill up the tire. I
thought maybe it was the front two but it was just one of the front
ones. It is really hard to tell sometimes with low-profile tires.
When we had finished that we went back in and talked some more until
I had to leave to go eat dinner.
The rest of my night was spent reading an article and skimming
another before composing an email to my partner. I updated him on
what I had been doing and the gave brief responses to the questions
we have to answer based on what I have learned so far. I pretty much
wrote all of our last assignment so it would be cool if he would put
this one together, mainly because I have yet to start on my database
paper in my technology class. That one doesn't have a page limit or
word count, which I guess is kind of good. I just need to focus on
answering the questions. Which will be much easier once I figure out
where to find a few sources.
Now I'm going to go to bed.
