Monday

What I'm doing between questions: RSS feeds, and subject headings list.

1:00

• Do we fax? [yes] Can I borrow a pen? [Yup]
• Fax
• Printer is printing streaky...before I change the ink, I ask Librarian K and he shakes the printer cartridge...suddenly it's all printing fine [sigh--when I shook it, it was still streaky]
• More time online? [sure why not]
• Pencil
• Personal message in a sealed envelope for Librarian B from ... some guy ...? I will ask her about it...lol
• [phone] [State] Services and Manufacturers directories [yup, they're here, 2013s even!]
• More time since we're dead quiet [sure--it's the guy I talked about food with here]
• Fax
• Lost USB-to-MP3 cable [dude has a lost something every week, and we NEVER have what he's lost...scam, much?]
• Hand sanitizer 
• Internet connection on one of the public computers just died...I restart it since all the cables are connected 

5:00

• 1040 instructions [STILL don't have them...sigh]
• [phone] AllData for car repair? [no we have Ebsco auto repair stuff...and he doesn't have a card, so he'll have to get that sorted before he can use it]
• No, Librarian T, no 1040 instructions...sigh
• Renew time (again) [for the food dude above]
• I glance up and find a dude staring at me; when I make eye contact he looks down and moves towards the reading room; then when he gets to the doors he turns around and looks at me again  [don't be a creeper dude--but I check to be sure I don't have blood or food on my face or clothes...nope]
• Pestery regular comes by, smacks the desk and says, "Don't pretend to be busy!" ["Like I'm pretending?" I answer]
• Creeper is still staring, now from the hallway to the entrance.... grrrrr
• How to access internet [uhm, wow, ok....I'm really not up for the easy questions today, even] [and of course she has to call home for an ID number she needs, and of course she's looking up her paystub from Wal-Mart...]
• [phone] Setting up a freshwater fish aquarium [I pull a bunch of things and put them on the hold shelf for him
