My cat has been loving the new tree. It has a lot more...tree point things...and lights. More space for her to curl up underneath, too. She's been under there for days except to eat and shit.
She's cute. And soft. And she loves me. 🥰

My Black Friday was not completely free of consumerism. We went to Goodwill. I had March&Ash deliver. Now it's time for leftovers and relaxation for a few hours while we are alone!

Home from Goodwill. The girls are off to Daiso with another parent. My time is up! But 15 and her BFF will be here in a few hours for their sleepover.

The people at the new potential job seemed nice and seemed to like each other. I really didn't want to change jobs in the middle of grad school, in this employment climate, especially to make less money. But I'm leaning that way. I may take my stuff home from my cubicle for Winter Break just in case

It's too bad my current library is on a mission to turn the library into a study hall. We cut over 500 print serials. My job is slowly going away as I bind myself out of work. Soon there won't be physical books left there at all. Like an Apple store. Vomit.

I also started applying for librarian jobs that I qualify for, slowly. So far, I only qualify for public librarian positions, but I'm looking. I applied with the City. But I really want to work on my CV and maybe stay in academic libraries.

I had a 2nd, on-campus interview at another school a week ago. Sometime next month, I should hear something. I mostly took the interview out of curiosity. I wouldn't get a remote day until my probation is over, and that's an entire year. 😭 1-2 remote days l8r. I'd learn a lot. We will see.

My boss has made me so sad. He's nothing like what I thought when I started. He was so nice, promised to teach me all sorts of things. Now it's been a year since I had any training from him. He's manipulative and narcissistic. It took me 2 years to get my remote day that EVERYone else has.

Today should be relatively easier. I turned in my final projects for my research class but still need to finish my digital preservation policy for Pres Mgmt.

This morning, my daughter is going record shopping with her dad and 2 friends. Later, they'll be dropped off here, and we are all going to Goodwill. Then those 2 friends leave, and the BFF comes over to spend the night.

Oof. I passed out before 6pm and slept almost 12 hours. The last two days were very tiring.

Good morning Bluesky. Just to give context. Why this is so infuriating because everyone in this racist and WASP-centric nation knows that media is slanted away from reporting missing minority children. This is petty and cruel. Another step backward.
