I want to assure you all that I, too, saw the aurora borealis. I will not be sharing the photographic evidence, though, because I still haven't fixed the cracked lens protector on my phone's camera.

It causes a weird glare. I don't want anyone thinking the aurora borealis is haunted.

Due to the fact that it's currently 34 degrees and the HVAC project at the library has left us without heat (we've been getting by on space heaters), the library is closed today.

I am not complaining.

The power has been out since quarter til six this morning, a rude awakening for a fan sleeper.

When will it come back on? Who knows. More dots keep appearing on the outage map.

Time to go talk about historical murder and hope I don't bore everyone.

When my cat sees me with the laundry basket he runs like I'm going to make him wash and fold.

I feel like we have the opportunity to turn David Lynch's quote into this moment's "Keep Calm and Carry On" and it's a far better rallying cry too.

I've got my adult local history true crime program on Saturday and the logistics are so jacked because of the HVAC project that I get to shove 30 people into the room we usually have story time and kids programs in.

At least there will be donuts.

I had the absolute pleasure to work on this release for Celluloid Dreams, contributing a video essay about the pure mystery of this near-lost giallo gem. Make sure not to miss out, it's incredibly worth seeking out (and has THE most memorable musical ditty!)

Blog Post: No Word November

Okay, I will be writing words, but most of them will rhyme.

No Words November
I admit that the title is a bit of a lie. It’s not that I’m not going to write any words in November. I am participating in the November Poem-A-Day challenge and poems usually do requir…

My brain chewed up a post about the current full moon, combining "super moon" with "beaver moon" to get "super beaver", and since my mind typically resides in the gutter...well.

HVAC upgrade is going great. Today everything smelled like burning insulation.

All day.

Burning insulation.

Just delightful.

My sister needs help.

She and her family have 30 days to move because the landlord wants the house back.

It's not likely they can find a place that will allow 4 small dogs and 4 cats.

She needs help rehoming them so they won't go to the shelter.

Anyone in the Denton, TX area that can help?

We're in the process of getting our HVAC upgraded at the library.

This past week the process has included a whole lot of space heaters and multiple layers of clothing.

Going to the bathroom is like visiting Hoth.

Lunch with two of my three girls at a different bar today. We're not going to get lit, but we are gonna talk shit.

Wow. Just wow.

Congrats to my Dodgers fans, condolences to my Blue Jays fans.

That was a wild ride of a series.

Blessing to the Dodgers and Jays fans. This is exquisite torture. Just brutal.

Going to see a band play after work today.

I hope they allow naps at the bar.

Episode 78 of Book 'em, Danno is live! A killer has Five-O reliving their old cases and then they have to take on a major fencing operation. Ray Danton is shirtless at some point. Enjoy.

I've been peer pressured into wearing my costume to work today for the library's Halloween party. I look forward to all of the people asking, "Why are you dressed up?" until the party starts.

This month patrons are playing "Find Reginald", our probably haunted Charlie McCarthy-looking doll. I'm in charge of moving him around the main floor and usually I send a pic to staff so they know where he is.

Monday was a cluster & I didn't send the pic.

My business manager may never forgive me.
