Did you know that many library education programs result in not just a Master of Library Science degree, but a Master of Library and Information Science degree? I’m not bitter at all that my alma mater changed from MLS to MLIS shortly after I graduated. In my day job as a professional secretary, information management is…

It was predicted that our area of central NC was going to get hit with a whopper of a storm. And for once, “they” were right. Sunday, we got approximately 14.5″. We usually average less than half of that in an entire year. My choir gig’s Christmas cantata was canceled (and our second show at…

As mentioned, we had a compressed rehearsal schedule for The Addams Family. In order to make good food choices and still fit into my costume, I prepped both lunches AND dinners during those few weeks. It really didn’t take that much longer to do and made me feel so much better in the long run. …I…

They’re creepy and they’re cooky, they’re… well, you know. This summer, The Addams Family took up residence at the Barn Dinner Theatre. Briefly, anyway. Much more briefly than we were contracted for.
