Today (well it’s probably yesterday now, I think it’s after midnight.) I worked both jobs, 5 hours at the library and 7 at the bookstore. Sort of have mind numbing brain cramping now! But I have to say the best parts of the long day turned out to be the retail side, were a continual line of young kids approached the register with their gift cards and stacks of new books. It was fun to watch kids who enjoy reading getting that special book; and there sure were a lot of those kids tonight.

Both jobs had lots of returns too…at the store it was mostly parents returning books and other stuff they received but didn’t want. Wish everyone had their receipts! At the library we had lots of returned DVDs, movies that families had watched over the holidays.  Wish retail returns were as easily handled as library returns!

Boy am I tired!
