Two in a row

I apologize for the last post that was pretty sappy... I guess that's what happens when I leave my blog open.

I've had two days off in a row this week, which is pretty great.

I think I like my new job, but it's just been kinda overwhelming and I was so happy to have days off, I almost cried. Literally. Don't be alarmed, I just get overwhelmed easily with new jobs. But that could be a whole different blog post, that no one would enjoy reading.

Yesterday I was able to catch up with a dear friend of mine I've known for most of my life over lunch at Cafe Zupas {have I blogged about Zupas before? I can't remember. but I love it.} and did other random things.

Today I went to go pick up my library book that I had placed a hold on {Mere Christianity- C.S. Lewis} but it wasn't quite ready yet and somewhere floating around the 5 story library. I tried to beat the system and just get it from the shelf, but it was already gone. So, instead I got Miracles by C.S. Lews, and another of which I'm pretty excited about, because I've been wanting to read it for years now: The Origin of Species by Charles Darwin. It's quite a thick book, but I'm ready for it. It'll probably take me about a year to read it, if I'm interested enough in finishing it.

I use an app from Goodreads which helps me to keep track of books I want to read. There is also another website I found through Pinterest that I want to take advantage of, which is What Should I Read Next? You type in a book you've read and enjoyed, and it gives a list of suggestions of other books you might like. awesome.

I'm also finishing a small "project" (more like a paint job) today finally, so I'll soon be sharing pictures of the before and after.

Happy Tuesday.

library

It's been a while since I've been in a library, and even longer since I've been in a "cool" library {Salt Lake City's library}. Today I went to the Burton Barr Central Library to get my new read (sorry, their website wasn't as cool so I had to resort to wikipedia) and it was so awesome!

Maybe I just don't get out much?

No, it's actually really that cool.
... regardless of the crazies chillin in the front that you have to dodge.

I could have stayed there all afternoon, but needless to say there were things to be done, and four missionaries to feed.

I shall return.
