Kittens grow up so fast. One minute you are driving them home for the first time and the next they are knocking things off of your shelves and trying on your jewelry without asking.
Day two of the ILA conference and I got to meet three members of my ALA Spectrum cohort. They are all wonderful people and I am honored and excited to have them as my future colleagues (as my professors would say).
The morning of my first library conference I woke up sick. I thought I could tough through it, but it only got worse as the day went on and I had to go home early. I did, however, have time to make this catapult.
Our movie marathon day had a rough start when tickets to Totoro were sold out. This was supposed to be a sadface picture but Jacob couldn't stop laughing.
Rule number one of being an adult: it is okay to make yourself dollar store mozzarella sticks at 11:30 at night. Your paper is almost done. You deserve this, friend.
Today I came home from class to find a letter waiting from my friend Noura. I had no idea that it was coming and it was a wonderful surprise. The highlight of my week so far. :)
Today I went on a student group planned trip to an apple orchard. It was a classic fall day with warmer-than-normal fall weather. It was also a fun time.
I have a new game where I stick Giraffe somewhere on her cat tree and then watch Robin's eye twitch before she runs up to forcibly remove the intruder with her teeth. It's a good time.
