Hurricane Ike in Cincinnati

After having no power and then having to travel to Atlanta for work I'm finally catching up on school work. We were one of the luck few to get power back and have been shuffling people's frozen food back and forth.  Being in the dark with no computer makes one feel a bit useless as a librarian. When people have no electricity they focus on basic needs - food, shelter, clean clothing, etc. not doing research. 

Survivor

I'm currently reading the book Survivor by Chuck Palahniuk (also wrote Fight Club). It's interesting, but definitely jumps around a bit so I'm trying to read big chunks in one sitting as I get a bit confused when I pick it back up. Perhaps I'm just a bit confused in general lately. First time back to school full time since 2005. Just dropped down to 3 days a week at work. We took a mini-holiday this week - which was fun, but spent most of the week stressing about the work I wasn't doing (both for school and for work).  So maybe leisure reading shouldn't be top on my list, especially when the main character is a bit of a nut job himself. That's all for today ;-)
