This morning I got ready and dropped the academic librarian off at
her house, then drove around a little bit before heading to work.
When I got there I found out the schedule had changed and I wasn't
actually supposed to come in until 10:30AM (to make up for the coming
weekend), not 9:00AM. Instead of leaving, I decided I would just
take a two and a half hour lunch. But then later in the day my boss
wanted me to train someone in the tech center how to reserve rooms,
so that through a wrench in that plan.
Because I wasn't on the schedule, I went upstairs until eleven
o'clock. I spent that time reading articles, catching up on the
news, working on a personalized reading list, and listening to music.
Then I had a walkthrough and taught the tech person how to reserve
rooms. My boss thought it would take at least forty-five minutes,
but it took maybe ten minutes, because it's actually a pretty simple
process. It gets more complicated when creating events, but just
reserving a room is straight forward.
I talked to my coworkers until my lunch break, which I got to add a
half hour to, so I went home, because that extra time would cancel
out the travel time, and I could actually enjoy a nice break at home.
Twitch has started a marathon of the original Doctor Who series,
so I started watching that. I don't know if I would have been a fan.
The original Doctor had some annoying vocal ticks, like say “hmm”
a lot.
When I got back to work I was on desk for two hours, which I spent
catching up on the local news and working on the personalized reading
list. Then I was off desk for an hour. I printed the signs I made
for the summer reading prize table, and then finished the
personalized reading list.
We had our monthly librarian meeting, which lasted about thirty
minutes, and we mostly talked about summer reading. I spent the rest
of the hour reading library magazines.
I met the academic librarian downstairs, because she was there
working. We walked her bike to my car, set the rack up and loaded
her bike, stopped at her house to get some stuff together for dinner,
and then slowly got around to eating dinner at my house while
watching another episode of Psych. Then I took down my
projector so she could borrow it tomorrow for her presentation, in
case the room she had didn't have access to a projector. And then we
got sidetracked by talking, which is always fun.
