thanks  
when I was in school, it was Girl Scouts of America - and I couldn’t think of any reason for there to be such a vocal anti Girl Scouts group

That explains it. No wonder they are so addicting.

That must get pretty uncomfortable when the weather turns cold.

Yeah, but I’ll bet the boys love it. No wonder they were having problems with inappropriate behavior!

I have discovered this wonderful thing called “The Library”. where any book that I jones for at the bookstore is available for FREE through The Library and its Interload System.

Yanno when you buy a book at the bookstore and there is no UPC sticker on the back. It is because I have peeled it off and stuck it in my notebook for future reference for the Library. I also set off the buzzer thingie at the bookstore when I leave. Heeeeeeee!

I have acheived Enlightenment!

(naturally, when one acheives Enlightenment, their self control in another arena completely dominoes. Yarn Stores, as an example, are my new crack. )

I did the library for awhile. But now I don’t. There’s no good reason for the switch, except that I moved. I even moved closer to a library. I just don’t think of it much. I haven’t set foot in the library I now live near.
