I love library duty because other than the duty itself, almost everything about the library is awesome. There's the oddly protective security guards, the lack of adult supervision over me, and most importantly, the opportunity to browse through hundreds of academic journals. Never mind that many academic journals start with the word Annals, which is homonymous enough for at least a few giggles, but the library shelves are just filled with stacks upon stacks of oddly specific and morbidly funny titles. Some of my favorites, as I've already discussed, are Blood, Death Studies, and Placenta. Friday afternoon brought a new favorite: the Journal of Human Lactation.
It's so perfect a title I really have no other comments. So I'll move on to a story about how I defended Indiana's honor. It's true. During our weekly meeting on Friday, whilst discussing politics and whatnot, the intelligence and political leanings of the people of Indiana were called into question and I was all, "No, you didn't," and vigorously defended the state. (Did you know that there are more interstates per capita in Indiana than anywhere else in the Union? That's why it's the Crossroads of America!) Because as you know, we all ought to make judgments and generalizations about peoples and regions based upon what we know of a couple of examples. That's certainly what I do.
