Shhh...

Libraries. What do you think of when you think of that word?

  • Quiet
  • Books
  • Quiet
  • Studying
  • Quiet
  • Reading
  • Quiet
  • Snippy Ladies telling you, "Shhhhh...."
The weather has blessed me enough today to sit in my happy place.  I'm in my little alcove outside the library enjoying the overcast yet warm-ish day.  And blaring from *inside* the library, is a blasted Karaoke party. What the heck?  I've already heard pathetic versions of YMCA, Eye of the Tiger, I Will Survive, Girls Just Wanna Have Fun, and several other off key and wholly irritating attempts at singing.

When did the library become this kind of place? Aren't there school gyms and community centers for this kind of activity?  Why do they need to desecrate the quiet sanctuary that is "Library?"

Obnoxious, but you should go join in! Maybe a little "Hungry like the wolf" or "It's raining men (Hallelujah!)"

LOL! I would *so* rock that song!

My signature song is "Man Eater."

You're sort of a smartaleck but I love thee and but thee. In a platonic, girlfriend way, naturally.
