how i go to the library
- go through the new releases section. take out nearly every book about farming, but wonder why people are still writing new books about farming. wonder if you and valerie burchby are their target audience.
- search for the same ten books that have been on your list for the last year, but the westerly library ALWAYS HAS TAKEN OUT. literally every time. get really angry about this, then get over it when you realize you are getting these books for free.
- take out a cookbook. later, get mad when said cookbook only has recipes involving meat. don’t i deserve at least a few vegetarian recipes??? i’ll just look online.
- take out at least three books based on the cover alone, of which you will probably only read the first chapter.
- take out a book about some nineties rock star. if no new ones are available, take out the same biography about kurt cobain that i have read six billion times. alternatively, a chuck klosterman book. alternatively, a biography of a drug addict.
- go to the check-out. talk to the same librarian that has been working there since i was three. pay library fees.
- repeat.
