A Fond Farewell

September 7, 2007November 4, 2015 Shelly

If I have something that is too difficult for adults to swallow, then I will write it in a book for children.
Madeleine L’Engle, Circle of Quiet

Madeleine L’Engle died yesterday. I love children’s books and have always been a huge fan of her writing, in part because she doesn’t condescend to kids. She will be greatly missed.

Are You Talking to Me?

September 7, 2007November 4, 2015 Shelly

I have a coworker who has a habit of randomly talking to no one in particular. I never know whether or not to answer. Is she talking to me? I just don’t know. It shouldn’t matter, but when no one answers her, I feel badly.

Who are you talking to, woman?!!!

I really do need an MP3 player.

Overheard in the Elevator

September 7, 2007November 4, 2015 Shelly

There are a lot of discussions I don’t want to listen to while stuck in an elevator. Somewhere on that list is the subject of surgical urethral enlargement. Doubleplusespecially when I am coming back upstairs with the snack I just purchased in the cafeteria.

I don’t think I’m hungry, now.
