Wanted to cry earlier today because I got stuck in a bookstore earlier, because it was POURING rain and some of Neil Gaiman's books were RIGHT there.

..but i couldn't buy them because I left my wallet at home and im stuck here wondering WHAT COULD HAVE BEEN

Does book paper actually smell good? asking for a friend.

When you buy a candle that "smells like books"

But it's just sandalwood

🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄

Merlin, Moonbeams, & Morgana. They go so nicely together yet are so completely different. Merlin carries notes of old scrolls and woodsmoke. Cosmic studies late into the night, moons and stars dangling from the ceiling in a meaningful manner. Hidden secrets revealed. Moonbeams smells of lilacs and honeysuckle, midnight adventures, an open meadow filled with starshine and silvery beams. Morgana comes in soap, bath bomb, and candle form. The scent is sensual and alluring, complex and deep. Aromatic cardamom mixed with sweet cream and black tea. I have just listed it as a bundle, so go check it out and save ❤️ Hope you have a cozy week ❤️ 🌲🌙✨🕯🦔🖤🫧 #merlin #morgana #moonbeams #candles #candlelover #library #booksmell #lilac #creamy #bundle #bathtime #bathbomb #soap (at St. Clair Shores, MI) https://www.instagram.com/p/CnwphKArojY/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I feel like by the time I manage to convince myself to update my resume and apply for this library position it'll already be filled, but I guess I need to do the mental/emotional work on myself first because I'm still traumatized by my last job gosh darn it. =_=

Ways library job would not be like old job:

Not cooped up in a literal closet/fluctuating social contact/likelihood of seeing many friendly faces I haven't seen in years

Fewer opportunities for my dyscalculia to fuck with me/little to no math

More chances to move around physically

So many windows so much natural light

Good noise levels and socially inforced quietness/general pleasant library sounds/less strain on my audio processing issues

BOOKSMELL OuO

Stimulating environment in general, good for adhd entertainment seeking brain

$14 an hour is more than I ever made in payroll

Probably less weird dresscode/can be more visibly queer than old job

Statistically likely to be fewer people calling angry about numbers

Might not have to deal with phonecalls at all

No mom freaking out at me to look busy (the stacks can take care of any residual anxiety)

Did I mention less isolated, cuz that's a biggie

Organizational systems that make sense

Access to more fun creative stuff than a boring Payroll office could ever hope for

Probably less emotional exhaustion (aside from Iowa's new book banning laws =_=)

Retirement plan and paid time off (!!!!!!!!)

Downsides/fears:

The plague.

My adhd issue with volume control when someone talks to me and I get excited

My adhd in general fucking my focus up

How do I get up and out of the house before 8 am??? I can wake up at 6 easy sure BUT GETTING READY TO GO ANYWHERE IS DIFFICULT AND DIFFERENT

Dyslexia in the House of Reading could be an Issue

Transportation.

My tendency to Hate Myself after Every Social Interaction

Having to Do Things, both to apply and as job

How feed cats when gone all day????

Rejection Sensitivity Dysphoria

That thing where I inflate the importance of something and make a tiny issue into a big huge problem in my mind and don't know how to ask for help before it actually becomes a real big huge issue...

The people who will stare at my boobs/creeps in general

The way my boobs will make every physical task excruciatingly painful for my back

Being large in environments where largeness was never accounted for

...but in general, the positives outweigh the negatives....

I'm just... afraid. Of getting burnt out again/worse.

I love a good used bookstore on a rainy day up north, and this gal's book jacket photo has me like 😍(plus scored The Song of Bernadette). (in Caseville, Michigan)

        something jim keeps deeply secret?  she doesn’t like the smell of old books

[theramblingsoldier]

Today is my birthday!! Today has been an absolute blessing from start to finish despite the dreary weather, my friend Oscar gave me this book as a gift which I positively love and my girlfriend Liz got my a set of sealing waxes and my own stamp! Unfortunately they haven’t arrived yet but I’m still totally stoked!

[kerfuffler]

The scent of books are my drugs
