etc.

The point of this whole blogging for 30 days straight was to force myself to sit down and write, even when I felt like I had nothing to say. Some days I have indeed had nothing to say, other days words just seemed to pour forth, for better or worse. I’ve been at this blogging thing for over five years (have I ever mentioned that I had a diaryland journal for over a year before I registered this domain? No, I didn’t think so. It was pretty much just for me) and in all that time, I don’t think I ever sat down to write unless I had a somewhat well-formed idea in my head, complete with opening line and adjectives. So, this exercise in writing for the sake of writing has been nice, and it definitely feels sustainable. At least for another 15 days.

Windsor was good, the symposium was excellent, if you have any interest at all in the future of the ILS, head over to my other blog for a play by play (non-librarians: the ILS is the monolithic platform that runs most aspects of what a library does: the catalogue, the book-buying, the borrowing & patron info, etc. And, oh yeah, it’s in crisis).

It’s good to be home. Now I get to go upstairs and curl up in my own lovely, but seriously pillow-deprived, bed.
