Love the Library

I love the library. I should go there more. I was going to bid on a book on E-bay, but something whispered 'check the library' in my ear. The book I was looking at is The Legend of Pope Joan, about a woman that supposedly infiltrated the Catholic church and actually became pope hundreds of years ago, not sure when. I'm not sure if it actually happened, I guess that's why they named it the legend instead of the fact. Anyway, I checked the local library, and they have about 10 copies scattered around the city. So I can read it right now for free instead of bidding, and then waiting to see if I win, and then waiting for the book to get shipped here. I actually already did all that last week, but I ended up loosing the auction. Now I'm glad I lost. I also like to check prices at Bizrate before I bid on things. A lot of times I can find things there for less than the opening bid on Ebay.



Little Dog Update

Little Dog is doing a lot better. She has two kinds of medicine we have to mix with her food, but I don't remember what either of them are. My mom suggested we give her a stuffed animal to satisfy any motherly cravings she's having. She has all kinds of stuffed animals. Whenever I go to the Goodwill I pick up a couple of beanie babies or similar little stuffed animals. She likes carrying them around, but after a while she decides it's more fun to pretend they are little rats instead of little babies. I guess all mommies feel that way occasionally. She especially likes the floppier ones that rattle when she shakes them. She also has a great big teddy bear, but she has a romantic relationship with it. She's a liberated, 21st Century dog.



And Now For Something Completely Different

If you work in an office, and want to drive your co-workers insane, put your browser on this page and leave it running while you take a leasurely trip to the water cooler. There is also a Satanic parady of the Hamster Dance, with the music played backwards and blood dripping from the hamsters. I'm not sure which I like better. I think the original, just because it takes me back to when I first got on line.
