The Library just called.

AGGHHHHH! (Yes, all caps again. And yes, I'm yelling)

"Hello," I say.

"Hi Erin, this is the library."

"Oh," I can't hold back the gushing sound in my voice. "I love when you call, it feels like Christmas."

"Ah, well that's nice."

Alright, get to it. Enough chit chat.

After a silent moment, she continues, "We have a book that just came in that you requested."

"Um, hm." Yes, yes. Which one could it be?

"We'll hold it for you for a week."

"Thanks." Yes, yes. I know this...get to it. "So which book is it?"

"Catching Fire."

"Shut up!" Squeal. Jump. Scream. "Are you freaking kidding me?"

Awkward silence. "Ah, no."

"I'll be right down." Muah ha ha ha...It's a good thing I've got friends at the Library.

  4. UM, WHAT THE?! (YES ALL CAPS, BECAUSE I TOO, AM SCREAMING NOW) How in the crap do you get that before it comes out? LUCKY!
    I am not going to request to be in line cause with life back to 'normal' it takes me much longer than I would like to finish a book.
