I am on the phones for the first hour my library is open on Indigenous Peoples' Day. I receive 879 phone calls asking if we are open today.
Yes, we are.
For the next hour after that I am at the front desk of the library, so I walk out to replace the people who were already out there.
"It was wall-to-wall phone calls asking if we were open back there." I tell them. "At least you probably didn't have to answer that question from people at the front desk."
The desk people looked at each other a little sadly. "Actually, we kind of did."

If you were wondering, yes, you should comment. Not only does it remind me that I must write in intelligible English because someone is actually reading what I write, but it is also a pleasure for me since I am interested in anything you have to say.
I respond to pretty much every comment. It's like a free personalized blog post!
One last detail: If you are commenting on a post more than two weeks old I have to go in and approve it. It's sort of a spam protection device. Also, rarely, a comment will go to spam on its own. Give either of those a day or two and your comment will show up on the blog.
