Librarian to The Man

Gov't Librarian, Artist, Former historian, Servant to Tilly, Friend, He/him Resister, and booklegger in training. No DMs I block crypto-anything, investment people, etc.

Rereading the Fuzzy books and found this: “for as long as (he) had known him, he had been what he was now—an empty shell of unsupported arrogance, with a sagging waistline and a puffy face that tried to look tough and only succeeded in looking unpleasant.” Sound familiar?

The Library is devastated to learn of the passing of Dolly Parton, a music legend and titan of children's literacy. Her Imagination Library program has earned multiple Library Literacy Awards and, in 2018, she visited us to donate its 100 millionth book to our collection and host a story time. 🦋❤️

While eating breakfast Tilly bit my thumb. No blood drawn. This is the second time this week she’s done this while I was eating. She looked shocked afterwards. Maybe she was just thinking about it and was shocked that she’d actually done it.

Tilly wanted to try my chopped bbq, pork skins, and hush puppies, so much so she spilled my soda all over the table and phone. Trying to eat with her around has become quite the ordeal. She is Not sorry, but at least the phone is ok.

Tilly's bloodwork was normal. Thanks to modern medicine. I would hate to have to give her insulin injections. Vet got her kitty carving. 20+ years caring for my critters is worth a little recognition.
