23. I work in Human Services
I want to become a Librarian. I can make with the one job what I now make with the two (possibly more depending on location, position and experience).

25. A librarian...funny you should mention that
I use to work for a book moving company, Wm B. Meyer, and I have moved some HUGE libraries, to put in more shelving, and rennovations...its a task moving them. Thats when I found out there were degree programs, to become librarians, I never would think that their would be a "need" for a degree program, but after working in the field a bit, I can fully understand why.

I believe the biggest move we had was the Sacramento Capital Library..7 million books. Oh, and I hope you become of you those good librarians...I have come across my fair share of evil ones....:)

36. I was originally surprised that a degree is required
Especially a Masters! But I've discovered there's a lot more to it than meets the eye.



Oh, and I hope you become of you those good librarians...I have come across my fair share of evil ones.


I have no choice but to be an evil one. I'm a liberal atheist.

If the library I eventually end up in is filled with Bible-thumpers they'll be in for a rude awakening.

5. I'm up
because I must have been a farmer in my last life? I usually get up early to go to work so even when I don't go in I usually get up - from habit I think.

21. my "headache medication" is keeping me up...
so i am watching an "anti-flag" concert DVD I have on my harddrive with my headphones on.

I was at my sister's friends house earlier this evening bitching about my sinus headache so she gave me a few percocets. they killed the headache (along with a few bong hits) but I am up all night now.

:crazy:

I never required much sleep anyway.

17. Me dammit.
I used to be able to start a thread. I used to have a star. Now I should go to go to bed and spend yet another day and night with my son at Henry Ford Hospital which is probably the best hospital anyone could land in. The nursing staff is amazing.

31. I only get there after a few drinks
The bulk of my posting has been in the Lounge during a good buzz

:7

I check my myspace at least every couple of days because my brother only checks his myspace email and ignores his MSN email, so. What else can I do? :)

32. My bulk posting is normally harassing a few of the chicks here
And many times I am "buzzed" as you would say also.
Heck I think since last saturday i did around 6-700 post.I should hit 6000 this weekend.( I may need a life)
I do love 98% of the people here And I try to ignore the asshats.
