May. 3rd, 2011 05:29 pmI have a confession to make.
I have not had a library card for the last 6 or so years. (Yes, yes...as a librarian's daughter this is a sin nearly as grievous as saying I haven't read a book in years, which is probably ranked somewhere between swearing at a nun and spitting on a saint's grave...It's just not done.) In my defense, I never intended to stay in any of the towns I have ended up in for very long, and so didn't figure on being around long enough to bother getting one. I have an extensive book collection of my own, and no qualms about re-reading things, so really, what was the point?
Well, today I finally acknowledged that I am likely to be here for a bit and with my personal collection residing nearly an hour's drive away, this is somewhat problematic. So, while I and the boy were out running errands I stopped at the town library and got myself a library card.
I didn't realize how much I'd missed that library smell...
