What’s not to love?
Month: November 2011
Snow
Yes, indeedy, we had snow! Enough to stick to the ground, though not so much that the roads were bad. More is supposedly on the way.
Still Raining
Building an ark…
A Tree
This was not taken today. Oh no, it was not, because today, it rained and rained and rained and rained. ALL DAY LONG. And, in fact, it is still raining. O gross!
Also, in case there is anyone out there who has not seen THIS, I am sharing it. You’re welcome. Because apparently we as a nation think it’s Just Fine to treat our own citizens like the enemy. It looks like things are going to get a whole lot worse, so we may as well laugh at Officer Asshole while we can.
Coal Train
I love all the lines and angles.
Lights Out
Someone forgot to turn the lights back on this morning at work. The entire building was closed down yesterday, because of the Thanksgiving holiday. When it opened back up this morning, maintenance must not have realized that there would be a few people working in Tech Services. Not that I’m complaining. It was kind of nice, for once, to work in the dark and the blessed quiet. (The light in the distance is from a bank of windows along the east end of the room.)
Math. On the Wall.
This is the wall above where the fourth floor photocopier sat. I’m not sure what the figures are for. Maybe students were trying to work out how much money they needed to put on their copy cards?
DO NOT Lower Door
DO NOT Lower Door. There could be serious consequences if this door is forced down. It will automatically drop in case of fire and this is the only time it is to be closed.
Oops! Door has been lowered!
I’m not sure what these little dumbwaiter elevator thingies were used for. I believe, years ago, the library stacks were closed to the public. When you wanted a book, you’d write the call number on a slip of paper and a page would fetch it for you. I’m assuming these little elevators were used to send books from the stacks down to the main floor. They’ve obviously been out of use for years.

Different Day, Same Crappy Weather
This was yesterday. You’d never know that, though, by looking outside, because it looks like every other day this week. The only variation in the weather has been the amount of rain falling from the sky at any given moment. Sometimes a little, sometimes a lot, sometimes slightly more wind, sometimes slightly less. O gross.
