Daily Thoughts 04/01/2017

I checked the library Twitter and Facebook this morning.

I also checked the gift books and the displays.

On the way to work, I read some of James Baldwin Collected Essays.  I like the essays where he is writing about living in France as an expatriate.

I checked out the book, New York 2140 by Kim Stanley Robinson..

I spent some time looking over the 600s.  I also worked on orders for next week.
