Sassy, what's your favorite thing about your library?

I'm a library junkie. Here's my favorite things about all the libraries I visit:

The Lynchburg library has the largest selection of my favorite authors and childrens books and movies, so I go there every week and check out a huge tote bag of books, audiobooks, movies and music for me and the kids.

The Madison Heights library has a pretty good selection and it has a huge play area for the kids, so I like to go there when the kids are with me. They have awesome reading programs for the kids over the summer and give out good prizes.

The Amherst library is kinda far away, so I don't go there often.

The Bedford library sells donated/used/withdrawn paperback books for $0.10 each, so it's a great place to stock up.

The Timbrook branch of the Campbell county library has a huge selection of paperback books that aren't registered in the system; they don't write them down, so you can keep them as long as you want, even forever.

Also, they have a lot of nice books for sale and when the books have sat in the for sale section for too long - they give them to me for free since I go there so often.

And because I go to that library too often, I somehow got suckered into joining the planning committee for the upcoming launch of the newest Janet Evanovich book.

I'm also a member of www.librarything.com (you create an online catalog of your personal book collection) and www.paperbackswap.com (free books!!!)

What kind of day are you having?

Well, I WAS having a perfectly nice day but now it's all ruined because MY library doesn't have a giant stuffed chicken. I have to move.

But Louisiana doesn't have seagulls and dead dolphins like you showed us yesterday. What's a girl to do?

But don't they? Like, doesn't New Orleans have all kinds of cool dead stuff washed up from Katrina?

Belle, will you take us to your libraries? I'm a library goon too. I go to mine at least twice a week during my half-hour lunch break.
I do all kinds of intellectual things like borrow music CD's to steal the music onto my MP3 player, read People magazines, look for movies in DVD,
read People magazine, look for free books and magazines in the freebie racks and did I mention, read People magazine?

Don't drink so no hangover. Extra Pad Thai is in the fridge with the leftover carne asada.

I was on, I think I even posted. You were just thinking too much about the latest issue of People magazine that you didn't notice the posts.

I've been outside working. It's hot today, up in the 70s.

Just don't fall in it!

Well, I didn't fall in it... got it smeared all over my T-shirt though

Took the trash to the dump and one of the cans had some old rotten eggs in it...
they leaked all down the side and all over me!

Cleaned up the yard some and took care of my chicken-babies...
I'm so tired of finding trash in my yard that's not my trash!
