Amazon discontinued the ability to create images using their SiteStripe feature and in their infinite wisdom broke all previously created images on 12/31/23. Many blogs used this feature, including this one. Expect my archives to be a hot mess of broken book cover images until I can slowly comb through 20 years of archives to make corrections.

Going Out With A Bang

In what is sure to be seen as a metaphor for my tenure as a library branch manager, tonight I had to unclog an overflowing toilet in the public women's restroom.

Oh, and it also meant I had to mop the floor.

Makes me so glad that I've been paying off my college student loans for the last seven years. All that valuable, indispensable education so I could dig out a plunger from the janitor's closet and get to work.

And not to toot my own horn - but I'm a master toilet plunger. Years of living in apartments with outdated plumbing and you quickly become an expert.

In other news - May 1 is the official date. That's the day I hand over my keys to The New Guy and go back to working one job. One blissfully boring job.
