Trying to be extremely grateful that my mother-in-law's news listening obsession is with NPR because it could be SO much worse, but it does mean we're sitting silently in the car listening to NPR news together. Here is a photo of a giant aloe from Carmel-by-the-Sea!

Thought of @jiggit.bsky.social today as we wandered the Art of Manga exhibition and saw some original What Did You Eat Yesterday art (also I got an actual three-sentence summary of what Inuyasha is about)

In San Francisco one day and I've already seen someone in Birkenstocks get into a car with a license plate reading NPRGEEK, it's all real

A coworker from another department shadowed me today and I was reminded how it delights so many non-catalogers to learn that we measure the books. It's possibly the least interesting part of a catalog record to me and people are so fascinated by it!
