About Me:
As if lists of stuff one likes isn't enough to draw unwarranted and subjective impressions about an individual's character...
I went to library school to spare myself the agony of having to know everything. All I really need is to know where to find everything.
(For those of you now contemplating sending me a message asking where your house keys are, I will give you my stock answer: Have you looked in the pockets of the pants you were wearing yesterday/earlier? Go check in the laundry basket. Then go look on the bookshelf nearest the door on the shelf closest to ribcage level. Don't bother looking in the refrigerator; they're not in the refrigerator. Only people in sitcoms lose their keys in the refrigerator. It's more likely they're on the sink counter in the bathroom, behind the toothpaste.)
(And, yes, I do require a stock answer.)

Who I Want to Meet:
Anyone who has legitimately lost their keys in the refrigerator. It doesn't count if the keys were hidden in the refrigerator by someone else, whether vindictively or jokingly.

Testimonials and Comments for Helen
either wasn't important, or it didn't
happen.
and giver of cats. The most responsible
cat owner known to man. Will listen to
me rave about the baby or the cats, and
will listen kindly to some of my most
mindless drivel.
have survived the time I spent living
in Troy. Her friendship has been
invaluable to me, and every time I head
back up there, even if it's just for
the weekend, I make a point of spending
time with her. In a lonely and
stressful time, she was always there
for me, someone I could go to for a
good time and a little peace. Thanks
for being a true and dear friend, when
I needed one most, Helen!
Plus, I've never seen anyone go from no
cats to multiple cats so quickly.
Ever. ;-)
librarians are submissive, prudish, and
nerdy---but our friend Helen the
Librarian (is that anything like Conan
the Barbarian?) rips the guts out of
those stereotypes with her rich mind and
sharply honed Swiss teeth.
But no matter how sharp her mind may be,
she still has not found those bottles of
Smirnoff Ice. Good luck, bitch!
