No chapel for me today (the Interfaith group I do on Thursdays) since I am stuck at #ReferenceDesk. My student worker did not show up, and of course, the other librarians are off to some fancy conference or two.

Someone's got to hold the fort. ๐Ÿฐ

Card from the Vampires Tarot of the Eternal Night deck.

Some coffins gathered in a chamber forming a circle. In the middle there is a wheel sigil.

Card from the Vampires Tarot of the Eternal Night deck. The Wheel of Fortune-X. Some coffins gathered in a chamber forming a circle. In the middle there is a wheel sigil.

In #Tarot, this might be a Wheel of Fortune moment. Use the #AISlop machine and you're just spinning the wheel and taking your chances.

May the odds be ever in your favor.

No #Tarot card this evening as it was a seriously busy day today. Including a late appointment, which went well the way.

We'll try again Monday.

Again, thank you for your support.

Looks like this could be one of those days. I barely sit down at work for my coffee, to check email and news, when an external patron comes up with a stumper of a question. Yep, do some research, go down to archives, and then followed up with caller.

This is why I get "in trouble" at times. I add a student for a research consult "outside" of the library's calendar (off the books) because there is no availability on the calendar, so I sneak them as long as I got a spot available in my personal calendar.

Another Sunday at #ReferenceDesk. While #MercuryRetrograde did end on Friday, 3/20, it was quite a pain, and I'm not ruling anything out yet until we get out of the post shadow period.

Anyhow, new week, we'll take it day at a time.

That #MercuryRetrograde is hitting hard this time. Got in to work today, barely sat down, and minor administrivia needs to be handled. Done, but like, can we get a break to breathe here?
