hildy89One of my parents' favorite restaurants in Arlington, Mediterranee, appears to have burned down over the Thanksgiving weekend. Fortunately no one was hurt. My parents liked the place but I never did, mainly because I'm too picky an eater for that type of cuisine. Too many sauces and etceteras.

researchbuzz had a fascinating link today with Folklore and Mythology Electronic Texts, including a seperate page on Germanic folklore.
Work is progressing fairly smoothly. I've gone from being the sole person responsible for checking in materials to one of three. The fourth one handles some of the shelving and runs around to local libraries with requests. But the extra people is a Good Thing, imho, since the firm receives a massive amount of mail on a regular basis. They do have a regular looseleaf filer, so I don't have those duties anymore. As much as I enjoyed the break from staring at the computer, the sheer volume would have overwhelmed me in this setting.
However I do get to know the joys of the pocket parts. For the uninitiated, those are the small little supplements tucked in the back of books, mostly legal treatises and codes. When the new set comes in, I have to go the shelf, take out the old pps and stuff in the new ones. Hopefully all of the set will be intact and not scattered into so many attorney's offices. We have an equally large Twilight Zone of pps waiting to be matched with their volumes once they are returned to the shelf.
Writing has slowed to standstill other than finishing off a fanfic piece that had been plaguing me since before Nano. I'm trying to do a novel concept for the CVS meeting by actually reading the monthly writing book, Fiction First Aid.
