My throat really hurt today, after a very busy reference shift followed by the first class I’ve taught this semester. Way too much talking!!! Right when I was going to demonstrate how to search article databases, there was a major problem with the library’s server. My solution was to take the class on an impromptu tour of the library (the professor seemed to be fine with this, as he is a great proponent of browsing) and then return to the classroom to give a brief demonstration after access had been restored.

Gin and tonic helps though!!!!! I’ve been feeling very tired and stressed, aggravated by the evil ragweed that I’ve been breathing in. I think by the end of the week I’ll be caught up at work. I’m going to try to see a movie tomorrow, maybe I’ll finally be able to see Garden State.
