The Blinking

I have two brief items for this evening.

1. I can now honestly say ‘I am a librarian,’ at least during the two nights a week I work the reference desk at a college in Boston.

2. Spitalfields Life is one of my favorite new blogs, because of posts like this and this; it’s a site I find worth visiting, even now when I’m being more and more selective about what I spend my precious time reading, especially reading online.

Also, the reading list is long past time for an update, and there should be probably be a post about the superb novels of Anthony Price, since I seem to be unable to stop reading them until I exhaust the supply, which event is due to happen in four and a half books.

Okay, I said two and then sneaked in that last item. So I’ll sneak in one more. If you have small children with vivid imaginations, they just might really enjoy My Neighbor Totoro, or as Madeleine calls it ‘ the show where the two girls move in the house.’  Adults with vivid imaginations will enjoy too.

  • Hey, congratulations on being able to claim the ‘Librarian’ title. It is one of my favorite professions. My wife is not a librarian but works in a library and as a book lover I am over the moon about that. Anywhere one can be surrounded by books is a dream job in my opinion.
