Oh, Yeah...

...So, the focus of my project is on subversive images of librarians in our culture. Ex: The Naughty Librarian, the Bad-Ass Librarian... I don't think I'm going to bother with the Uptight Old Spinster Librarian, as everyone does stuff on that. I'm going for the other end of the stereotype spectrum.
Ooh! Dude, I am totally going to look for a Blaxsploitation Librarian!

My little sister tried her hand at bull-fighting. What exciting thing am I up to? I'm thinking of becoming a notary public.

Post the First

I don't like blogs.

Specifically, I don't like the vast majority of people that keeps blogs. I don't care about what music you're listening to. I don't want to hear about seeing your ex-boyfriend and his new girlfriend at the mall next to Hot Topic. Get a diary, write in that, and shut the hell up. If you're really that fascinating, then get a publisher to commit actual physical resources, like paper, to your work.

There are exceptions to this: my irresponsible little sister (www.cfallon.blogspot.com), and the fictional characters from Achewood (www.achewood.com). Generally, though, I think most bloggers kind of sort of need to shut up.

I, however, don't have a choice. I have to keep a blog, to pass a class, to get my Master's, to become a librarian. I'm not a hypocrite; I'm a victim.
