Though I have written thousands of reflections on my life in the library, and covered details of every sort of event that takes place there, there is one moment at my library that regularly induces in me a strange feeling that I have found it hard to express: the moment when my immensely popular library opens and people flood in.
Every time I see the frenetic moment of my library opening I think, "Instant Library"! There's just something about all those library patrons corralled in the lobby, flooding into the library as we pull back the gates. There is such a strange sense of urgency as they all race off to carry out their plans for the day, or simply to grab their special places, or are maybe racing off to one our first come, first serve private study rooms.
But I think I finally have it.
I have a way to express it! And even a theme song!

Post a Comment
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.
