whatever... libraries are expensive

I went to the library in Charlotte to check on my fines: $26.50.  That's a hard back at Barnes and Noble. I had several books that moved with me.  I finally remembered to turn them in a couple of months later. (Fines max out at $10; librarians do have some heart.)

The fines are bad enough, but the librarian's snarky attitude.  I probably should have suggested she whisper; instead, I got her to print them out.  I have the printout in my purse just in case.

Goodwill, Value Village, Salvation Army... these are the best places to shop for books.

Don't worry: I have two library cards.  Take that, uptight library lady! I'm still in business.
