Easily amused
The books we read, and what we do with them, reveal much about us.
Checking in books from the overnight bookdrop this morning, one caught my eye. It has to be overdue, I thought as I ran it under the scanner. Sure enough, it was. The Procrastinator’s Handbook: Mastering the Art of Doing It Now by Rita Emmett, was returned a day late.
If anyone should ask, bad behavior costs $1.00. Or at least that was the fine, when a patron was four days late in returning The Cost of Bad Behavior: How Incivility Is Damaging Your Business and What to Do About It by Christine Pearson and Christine Porath. She returned it in-person, and we both had a good laugh about it.
I’m not immune. I frequently refer to myself as clueless. What am I reading now? One Hundred Essential Things You Didn’t Know You Didn’t Know: Math Explains Your World by John D. Barrow.
