carnegie library..

it is absolutely crazy that i haven't ventured to the Oakland branch of the Carnegie Public library..it's right next to Carnegie Mellon, for heaven's sake. but it made me, once again, say to myself 'sheesh. i LOVE libraries'. I love everything about them..i love walking into an aisle of books, and randomly pulling a book off the shelf...i love the fiction section. i love the nice woman who showed me the mezzanine (which was, probably, a 5'8" clearance, but oh well)...i remember at my old place of employ, i got puzzled looks when i shared my love for libraries. 'why go to the library? at all?' they asked...sigh. because it's awesome. that's why. because i found a book on racquetball..with this cover.

I love the carefree style that couple has. That looks as thick as a text book, is that deceiving? I know Raquetball is complicated but . .

it IS deceiving...it's only, probably 50 pages..that is funny to think about, though..
