viedmaNot as wretchedly sick as yesterday, thank goodness. Am at the state's annual library conference today and tomorrow. Although I can't say my life has been radically altered by presentations on the new Inspire interface or things like that, I have to say that I've been enjoying myself. I bought some books by Peg Kehret, an impulse purchase that I haven't regretted, and looked up some vegetarian options on happycow.net, choosing the only one in walking distance, a nice Indian restaurant a few blocks away.
It's been a couple of years since I've been here, but man, Indy is taking a turn for the worse. That's probably why they want all convention goers to use the skyway, I guess. A few blocks away from the red hot center of it all it's bond bail shops or boarded up.
My eggplant and tomato curry was yummy and spicy, and as I was drinking the last of my tea in preparation to leave I was waved over by a fellow librarian. She was with her daughter and enjoying the day, so we sat and chatted for twenty minutes about libraries, Google Tools, and (what else?) Twilight. This happened when I was a pollworker a couple of weeks back-- our Republican judge, in addition to being a darn fine worker, is also an aspiring paranormal romance writer.
"So you've read Twilight?" I asked.
"Omg yes," she cried, "it's my favorite!"
"Omg, I love it too!" I said.
"Are you two talking about Twilight?" asked our (sliiiiightly older) Democratic clerk.
"Omg I love that book!"
"Omg we do too!"
And then it was all Omg omg omg squee, omg Edward squee! erm, Jacob not so much squee. Squee squee! for the next five minutes. By now I'm starting to believe the only people who don't like Twilight are a) have a Y chromosome or b) haven't read it yet. To the ones in the B category, turn back now, it's not too late, the squee is gonna get you.

violetisblue also informs me via chat that someone has written Sarah Palin/Edward Cullen. Can I get an L, an O, and an L?
