Stealing a meme from my mentee's blog:
Name five things that make you insanely happy for absolutely no fathomable reason:
1. Sticky notes (and office supply stores in general)
2. Walking in the rain without an umbrella
3. Spicy potatoes
4. Long Greyhound bus rides
5. Crossing things off my To Do list
(Of course, if I think about it, I can easily come up with the reason why each of these things make me happy. It's actually pretty hard to come up with things that make you happy for absolutely no reason at all.)
Classmate of the Day: Lauralee Gilmour who uploaded some of her hilarious stick-figure artwork to our cohort's listserv. I've asked her permission to post a (relatively tame) excerpt. As well, a glance at the time stamp on this entry will show why I too, am a member of her group: “SANE SLEEPS – Students for Afternoon and Night Education / Students Longing for Extremely Essential Periods of Slumber”
[Edit: Okay, permission granted. This is part of a comic she drew in a recent 506 – Management class when a few of us who are taking “Collection Development” were able to leave early to attend a presentation by a vendor to UWO librarians. I'm pretty sure I'm the stick figure saying “good-bye” as I apparently walked out of the class with a shit-eating grin on my face as I looked at the rest of the class who had to stay there. The funny thing is that because I was at CLA the week before this, I'd missed our Collections Development class and only heard about the presentation that morning. Otherwise, I too, would've been sitting in class thinking “Why do they all get to leave early???”]
Oh, and Chris Graves put his own statement of intent from his MLIS application on his blog so I've updated the related entry on my site.
