Yep, after months of unemployment and mind-boggling boredom, I finally got a job! Yesterday I interviewed with the Larry J. Ringer Library in College Station and they called me half an hour after the interview to offer me a job as Library Clerk. I'll be working at the circulation desk, checking books in and out, collecting overdue fines, issuing library cards, reshelving books, and I get to drive a van back and forth between the College Station library and the main branch in Bryan. The pay's not spectacular but the benefits are good. And I've secretly desired to work in a library since I was about 12 so I guess you could call this a dream fulfilled :). Monday I start orientation. (Picture of the library below). More pictures of Juno!
She likes to be underfoot. Literally. Here she is underneath Jason's desk.
She also likes to chase squirrels, which amused both me and our neighbors yesterday. You can see the squirrel taunting Juno at the top of the picture.
She stayed like this, motionless, for a good five minutes, just staring at the squirrel.
And then this morning she went rather crazy with her toy rope (that by now more closely resembles a dirty, stringy mop head) and I managed to catch it on video:
I hate to tell you this but that is exactly what she will do if she ever gets a hold pf a squirrel. Mel, congrats on fulfilling a lifelong(at least since 12 years old) dream.
congrats Mel! I hope you first day of work goes well. I LOVE books and always thought working in a library would be cool. Maybe you can recommend some good books to me.
It is so great that you are working in a library, I look forward to hearing about how it goes. Maybe you too will go to library school and then we could attend fancy library conferences together :)
