Funny story

I went home a couple weeks ago and my mom gave me all my accumulated mail, right? Well, in the pile was a harmless looking letter from the Tolono Public Library. (Tolono is another teeny weeny town near mine.) I opened it, and inside was a letter informing me I owed them $8.00 in fines for "The Unicycle Book."

I checked that book out from MY library when I was 13 years old.

It's been EIGHT YEARS, and NOW they decide to fine me?

First of all, I've never been to the Tolono Library. Did my library get the book through inter-library loan? Second of all, I RETURNED THE BOOK. EIGHT YEARS AGO. I re-checked it out once because I was still learning to ride my unicycle (yes, I *am* a dork, thank you). But then I returned the book.

One wonders if the book ran away to join the circus. After all, it obviously wasn't getting very good care from its Library if it took them the better part of a decade to realize it was missing.

And that's my fun library book anecdote for the evening.

Screw it.

I just spent 45 minutes filling out a "Looking Back on 2004" survey, and when I went to update, the whole thing disappeared.

Screw it, I'm going to bed.

Feel the love, and other things

1. Reply to this post if you'd like some ego boosting.

2. Watch my journal over the next few days for a post just about you, only you, and why I think whatever I do about you.

3. Post these instructions in your journal and pass it on.


Also, I realize I didn't actually go to bed. Leave me alone.

( And for those who care, update on family health stuff )

So 2005 looks like it'll be a regular Hollywood Sequel to Family Medical Crises 2004. Joy.

Know what I'd like for Christmas? (Besides ninja swords and the end of the Iraq War?) For everyone to just be healthy for a good chunk of time. And for the stress of "But When Will the Healthy Streak End?" to disappear.

Also, I'd like to see all of my friends. Everyone I haven't seen in months, and everyone I've seen recently but not-for-long-enough.

That would be a good Christmas.

I'm ready to fall asleep. But I still have Christmas cards to do...

Oooh...

We wants it, Precious.
