Me...lived for it!
Who else liked to get called on to read out loud to the class? I was like I’m going to read the shit out of this.

Happy turkey day! I don't have much of an appetite today, and only had a little bit of each dish. Pretty sure my roundish cat, Goose, ended up eating more turkey than I did.

Every single school should have a library & a librarian, to help every single child find the books that will make them readers, and give them all the lifelong benefits of literacy. Libraries & librarians change children's lives FOREVER!

Libraries feel like something about which we could very easily be saying, “Remember that place where you could borrow books, for FREE, and return them when you were finished?” And kids would say “What?? No way!” And yet there they still are, despite everything we’ve become, existing. Remarkable.

Remember that libraries are proof that not every goddamned thing needs to be “for profit.”

The best part of working in a library is getting to walk around the library before it opens.

15 years ago today, I legally became Charlie's mom. I fell completely in love with him months before that, but we did the paperwork with the judge on Nov 20th.
