Book of Life, Nicholas Roerich, 1939

Daily Thoughts 05/24/2017

I checked the library Twitter and Facebook this morning.

I read some more of We Have No Idea on the way to work.  I am reading about entropy.  I also read a bit more of The Stress Proof Brain.

I checked the displays and the gift books this morning.

I read a copy of the New York Times Book Review and Booklist.

There is a beginning HTML and CSS class in the lab today.

I spent an hour in the children's room which was a little bit different.

I checked out the book, Unf*ck Your Habitat You're Better Than Your Mess by Rachel Hoffman today.
