I Write Things Down...

on scraps of paper, envelopes, post-its and I find them at random times and sometimes I can barely remember why the quote appealed to me and what I was thinking at the time that I felt compelled to scribble it down while driving on I 95 or cleaning or walking the track...

Here are a few examples:

Are you an IDIOT?
No, sir, I'm a dreamer.
-Scrubs

Small dog licking your face
-B. Dylan

Stupid's supposed to hurt
-Kid in the library who's friend fell off skateboard


i been spending way too long checking my tongue in the mirror
and bendin over backwards just to try to see it clearer
my breath fogged up the glass
so i drew a new face and laughed
i guess what i'm sayin is there ain't no better reason
to rid yourself of vanity and just go with the seasons

-Jason Mraz

For the cake lovers out there

The Public Library Association (PLA) recently held a conference called Turning the Page: Building Your Library Community, a unique, online professional development opportunity for public librarians, trustees and library supporters. At that event they had a most appropriate cake made on the Food Network's Ace of Cakes program.
