80's flashback

Woke up this morning to Pat Benatar's "Hit Me With Your Best Shot" playing on the radio and was immediately transported back to my high school gym classes. Frighteningly, I could remember a good chunk of the aerobics routine we did to that song. Hmmm... dating myself, aren't I?

Ah well...

Good day today. Was a good girl today (largely because I wouldn't have been able to look my librarian friends (like *cough*miladygrey*cough*) in the eye otherwise. See, I'd put a request in to hold a book for me whenever they happened to get it in (it was on order and there were 4 or 6 people ahead of me). Then I got this 15 percent off a single item coupon for Barnes and Nobles and with my 10 percent reader's advantage card and the book being 20 percent off already... I weakened and bought it outright.

Yesterday the library called and left a message and told me it was ready for me and they'd hold it till Thursday. I thought about just not calling back, but then I imagined someone *cough*miladygrey*cough* putting the evil eye on me so I called them and told them they could send it on to the next person. Okay, actually I just left a message 'cause nobody answered the phone, but I figure that's good enough, right?

I meed to head to bed now, but can I just be a teensy bit snide for a moment and say that the number of people who are just *now* realizing that John Locke from Lost is also the name of a philospher - and who have apparently missed all of the several billion posts on several million blogs/websites/etc on this and the possible connections and what it could mean over the past 8 months or so.... Well, it's very amusing. And each of them presents this as if they have just discovered the cure for cancer. They are all very dear, I'm sure, but... sigh...

Anyway, to bed I go! Wish me sweet dreams!
