All run together.

I'm making the executive decision to forgo anything creative this evening, which includes thinking about potential projects in fandom and otherwise, to get to bed before midnight so I can be up early with less of a struggle than usual. I don't really want to go to Ellis - I'd be happier sleeping in and being self-indulgent - but I didn't go in last Thursday and I really should see about getting some cataloging done. And I already bought some cookies to share. I'd like to ask for something else to do besides desk work and basic copy cataloging, but it's very hard to have a good conversation with the people in charge of what I can do: getting direct, fast exchanges of information is always an uphill battle, and sometimes it's easier for me to abruptly end the conversation rather than let it ramble on for another few minutes.

To my credit, I sorted through my e-mail feeds and various bookmarks to find a new set of job leads, with close to forty this time around. I'll have to narrow them down and start the winnowing process tomorrow. Knocking things off tends to be the easy part. Although I still need to follow up on a couple from last week, and also that one zoo thing.

So if I didn't go into Ellis, I'd have the time and energy for those; by going to Ellis, I earn the museum/zoo/art gallery pass. Maybe I'll just start taking Thursdays off and see how that goes.
