i think the only reason my horoscopes seem true is because i believe horoscopes. this really could make sense for anyone, i suppose.

The planetary alignment gives you extra bite in the love department. If you have been wondering whether to push someone into making more of a commitment, but don't like to appear too forward because you fear rejection, then take heart. Today you have so much courage you couldn't care what their answer is. Someone else will always say yes to your charms, if this one doesn't work out.

new subject: libraries

when most people think of libraries they think of books, old ladies, and librarians with buns and glasses...i'm here to dismiss the myths of library folklore. first off, yeah...well old ladies and old people in general gravitate towards libraries and the LARGE PRINT section. our library has the regulars, mostly old people or families. i loved seeing familiar faces. i hated making library cards. for some reason people don't understand rules or 19 year olds that know more than they do. hey, i WORK here and you don't...don't tell me what i'm not suppossed to do. i used to get asked by old men all the time, "are you 15?" or "do you work here?" the first question...hmm, pedophiles and the second question, No, of course not...i'm just behind the desk because i felt like it and i have a better view of the books. HA! oooh, another thing that was funny was when it would get bored we would look up patrons names in the computer to see if we had any "famous" people...yes, ladies and gentlemen...Julia Roberts does have a library card with the DPL...and i have checked out books for her too. also, we used to have the videos seperated. we had an adult section meaning anything over PG (no X folks, sorry) and a children's section. we always snickered when we directed people to the adult section. sometimes when we would call people over the intercom people would comment on our sexy voices...not mine...but beverly and marion had it going on. the patrons said they had "sex phone" voices. HAHA!

libraries are in no way boring. i've been working for this library for about 4 years and all these strange thing have happened: a fire, a FBI investigation, an anthrax scare, wild mushrooms on the shelves hidden behind books, an assortment of pills on a shelf, and ...that's all i can remember right now. i work there again this summer and i can't wait. there's nothing like shelving books for 5 hours a day and then having a 3 day weekend. oh the joys of working part-time. wheeee...not to mention i can get whatever days i want off and go to CONCERTS during the day because yeah, the warped tour can't be missed. ha!

also...should i listen to the kinks? i have yet to get into them. what the fuck is mod? i just know figured out emo but mod is still beyond me.
