Books, Books, and More Books

I’m tired this morning, (though I did sleep slightly better last night), and didn’t feel like doing any of the things on any of my to do lists before I “officially” started work this morning. So, I ran to my library and dropped off some of the books we’ve read this week, including one very over-due book.

I try really hard not to have over-due library books but every now and then it does happen. Usually because a kid has hidden a book where I can’t access it or because it’s fallen behind another stack of books or something weird like that. In this case, it’s because it took TW a lot longer to read a book than normal. (She’s not feeling well or sleeping well, either.)

.40 is totally worth paying, though.

The $1 I paid to check out a DVD last week is totally worth it, too.

My library is awesome. I can’t imagine life without it. I don’t understand how people can go months/years/lifetimes without visiting the library. It just makes no sense.

Just like makes no sense.

If your kids read Captain Underpants, they won’t turn into horrible human beings.

If your kids read The Kite Runner, be proud that you have a smart kid. I mean, seriously.

And Tango Makes Three, challenging that one is just plain silly. It’s about penguins, for godsake.

Beloved? Really? You want to challenge Toni Morrison? Please.

None of it makes any sense.

Go hang out in your library and read some challenged books. I’m going to read 50 Shades of Grey this month, (one of the side benefits of getting RJ’s room clean — I found all the missing books!)

  1. I agree about the library. Too many of these have closed due to lack of interest/attendance. I’m sure the library is quite grateful for you.

    Thanks for dropping by my blog recently. I am most appreciative.

  2. I have a fine for the first time in ages. The fake husband had put a DVD we watched in the library bag and I took it out so I wouldn’t pile the (heavy) books we were returning on top of it. And then I forgot to put it back in. Oops. Totally worth the fine though!
