Within these depths...

I want to take a moment now to inform you all of why you're here. Actually, I am fairly certain you are here because you clicked on a link that said "Beat up the Monkey and Win a FREE IPOD!!!!!!!!!potato!!!!" I am sorry I cannot offer iPods at this locale. However I do hope in the near future to include the following:

Library-related
  • Reflections on YA librarianship and library school
  • Complete program outlines (like the ones in the books)
  • Ideas for bulletin boards, programs, book displays and other YA-related stuff
  • Antecdotes about life in the library
  • Book reviews (or, more likely, me ranting about books - there will be plenty of spoiler warnings)
Craft-related
  • Pictures of completed projects and those in progress
  • Rants about how I swear I gauged that sweater this time and the sleeve is still twice the size of a hippo's rear
  • Pictures from craft swaps
  • Info on an ongoing plan to have a craft show business called Knifty Knits
  • Patterns - if I ever write any down
Other-related
  • Basically whatever I feel like talking about because this is my blog and I'll do what I want!

So if you are interested in any of those things, welcome! If you were instead looking for blogs on fly-fishing, socialism or Pat Benetar, I suggest you go here.*

Now, there is one more piece of info that I should mention. Recently a friend of mine posted some interesting tidbits about his workplace. Even the lower management thought it was funny. Unfortunately upper management didn't feel the same. They called my poor friend into their office and decapitated him (and by decapitated I mean asked him nicely to take his blog down). For this reason I am not mentioning the name of my place of employment in my blog. Names have been changed (to something utterly ridiculous when appropriate). You may notice that it isn't THAT hard to find out where I work, but this is not a matter of national security. Thank you for understanding.

*Please note, there is no relationship between this site and the previous ones, but it also includes so pretty stupid stuff so you'll probably like it.
