Librarian seeks new employment

I’m trying to leave my job. I know that this may seem like a silly thing to do in these recessionary times, but I feel that my job is turning me into a person I don’t want to be, so it’s time to put more effort into trying to leave. Actually, I have thought this [...]

Vivaldi’s Gloria

I’m listening to Vivaldi’s Gloria at this present time (on Spotify), because we might be doing it with choir after Christmas, unless anyone (of the choir) protests. I’m very sure I’ve sung it before, but I just can’t remember when. I’m sure it was fairly recently, but I’ve tried to look up when I think [...]

Hawaii magnet

This is the first of my objects. It’s a magnet and is usually holding up bits of paper on our fridge door, but I took it down to take its picture. I would like to go to Hawaii, but I haven’t been there. The magnet was brought from there from my friend S, who [...]

When a [wo]man is tired of London [s]he is tired of life (?)

I think I agree with Oscar Wilde to a certain extent, although I’m not sure how I would actually like to live in London and to be in such a busy place all the time. It might be a bit much.  However, I like going to London and being in London. I like the [...]

Two pieces of cake and a slice of pizza

Another ploy I thought up to help me think of things to write about for NaBloPoMo was just to write about the best bits of my day. It was going to be the best and worst bits, but I thought I would try and be more positive. They will be listed in no particular order.
Today’s [...]

National Blog Posting Month

It’s here again. Every year I tell myself I’m not going to do it again and the next year I do. When I say every year, I’ve only been doing it for two years, so that was a bit hyperbolic of me…or was it? I really shouldn’t use words if I’m not sure that they [...]

Odds and ends

Odds
Well, the concert didn’t go as badly as I feared it might. In fact, most of it went quite well, apart from the bit in I Vow To Thee My Country when we all started singing the second verse when actually we should have been silent and waiting for the piano introduction to finish. It was one [...]

Will it really be alright on the night?

I haven’t really done very much today. I’ve tried to lay the tomatoes to rest again, but gave up halfway through because it’s just too horrible out there. It was cold to begin with and then it started to rain, so I thought it was time to go inside.
We have our first concert with the [...]

Mysterious missing items

Today, I had planned to do several things when I got into work. Unfortunately, I didn’t do them and instead spent most of the morning looking for missing books. Some of the books are ones that people say they have returned but are still on people’s records and we can’t find them anywhere in the [...]

Slow Blogging

Yesterday I read about Slow Blogging.  Contrary to what the article says, Mr Sieling does seem to be blogging again, or at least he was on 21st November, so that’s good. Although I am currently participating in NaBloPoMo and therefore blogging particularly fast, I think the idea of Slow Blogging is a good one. From [...]
