a fifty-something under-tall half-deaf school librarian in the jersey suburbs with two grown kids and time on her hands

Libraries will get you through times of no money better than money will get you through times of no libraries.

A run-down of my life since I wrote my last entry:

1. I am now the mother of a college graduate.
2. I did not make a scene with my in-laws or do anything to make the day unpleasant for R. They didn't bring up anything at all, even the birthday party I won't go to.
3. Hubs did indeed go off on a mini-rant, insane-wise, in the restaurant. It was brief, but totally annoying and pointless just the same.
4. I did give the tour of the high school for alumni, class of '63, on Saturday, which was actually a lot of fun, other than having to talk for an hour and a half. They were rowdy and having a good time, and it was all pretty silly.

So that's it in a nutshell. The long story of Graduation Day -- and brother, was it long -- will follow in the next few days, I think, with pictures. These are not pictures of me and mine, oh no. These are pictures of all the idiots who surrounded us in the audience of a thousand or so who didn't know how to behave in public. Just call me Andy Rooney.
