Hot or Not
older sane gay guy wants to find a younger sane gay guy to help him find his kinkier side. yep. the hottest guy on Hot or Not tonight is gay (even though i have listed only straight men over 40). drat.
Wednesday with Waverly and the director
felt weird today...that weird feeling i haven't really had in a long tome. the feeling that says , "hide!" but i went to work because the circhead is on vacation again (did i mention that?) and it would be only Waverly and i on the desk. (Waverly and me?) the director actually came in AT NIGHT to relieve me so i could have a break and not have to worry about the new guy being alone. actually, he handles himself just fine and, if it was a regular night and not a crazy wednesday Book Buddies/Reading Group night he would have been fine all alone. we had lots of people, though (810) and it really called for some help. it will be nice when we finally have 3 people on wednesday night again.
Hino borrowed my digital camera to take pics to sell stuff on Ebay. i wonder what happened to his camera? i wonder what he is selling and i wonder if he paid his car insurance? also, did auntie buy any Hallowen candy because i am getting some and i can pick some up on sale at CVS.
i let it spill to our mother-to-be that we are having pizza for her on monday (but she still doesn't know about cake on Halloween, her last day). so, i begged her to act surprised and she said she would. duh on me!

Trustees
a trustee meeting tonight. i despise them. they are lazy. they could be doing a lot more for the library but all they do it talk, talk, talk. they are not 'good' to the staff as we are not a physical part of the building therefore we do not matter. i especially despise the Loud Pig. she is a big bully of a 'woman'...very Butchy, Loud and Onerous. i was crocheting at the staff table on my break as she and the other trustees were leaving. Loud Pig is talking to the director about the candy that is on the candy table. then she proceeds to TAKE food from our circheads desk (granola bars and snack bars she eats and leaves open in case one of us needs a boost). the director had to TELL HER that that was someone's PERSONAL DESK and it was their food. bitch. luckily, she did not see the Hallmark Spellbook full of candy that i brought in tonight. the Spellbook was from last year (buy 3 cards get the candy holder for $9.99). when the Spellbook is opened, it says one of several things in a witchy voice and holds a LOT of candy. by the way, according to Maniac Mike, candy at CVS it the cheapest at $1.88 a bag. the director says Target has bags at 3 for $5 but not a good selection.
anyway, the Loud Pig comes into the staff room and proceeds to question me about what i was making. i told her that i was making a scarf and she said "that's too wide. maybe you're making a shawl." fuck you. i can make my scarves as wide and as long as i want, with or without fringe. then she tells me she crochets but only uses metal hooks and can't believe they now make plastic hooks to which i reply, "metal is too heavy for me. i use bone or plastic". asshole. and it is true. the metal hooks are too heavy and i do not have good control over the yarn with them. ya 'know. too each his own. plus, she reeked of garlic. then, another trustee, who was a former children's librarian, whom i also despise, came in and put her 2 cents in and SHE reeked of "unwashed food smelly" clothes. she usually does.
are the Trustees at ANY library ever any good? all i here are horror stories about them. and our Friends of the library are another big joke. they do so very little in a wealthy town. they should be pulling in the money. whenever they do anything, circ usually has to do the work...selling shirts and bags, selling tickets and keeping track of all of it. when i was in Cape Coral Florida, in their refurbished and expanded library, the director told me the Friends raised $90,000!!!!. yep. i typed it correctly. they raised the money for the beautiful marble fountain on a beautiful terrace for patrons to sit and read, for leather chairs and real mahogany wood trim. they went ALL out. it was a beautiful library AND they had a huge, sunny staff room with mucho counter space and two full size refridgerators! and a COUCH that was comfy and lots of tables and chairs.
that was my night. blah, blah, blah.

Salivary Gland
Maniac Mike supposedly has a salivary gland infection. he was 'diagnosed' by a nurse and put on an antibiotic but has not yet seen the doctor. i have seen some pretty awful pictures of salivary gland diseases and they are among the worst i have seen. MM had hisleft ear blow up and turn red, the side of his face was slightly raised and he had a lump that i could feel behind his jaw. this has scared me quite a bit, so i have been in bed all weekend hence the late Halloween Pics and no-blogging. i'll post some pics. see if they scare you.
