Shame-faced semi-self-promotion

This feels really "what I did at work today," but I think I had mentioned the reading maps we were putting together for the summer reading program and how I was disappointed that the files were in Publisher and therefore not really e-mailable. Anyway, they're online now. For what it's worth. Mine is the last one and not particularly noteworthy, but some of the other ones are really well done. They're technically trifold brochures, so not all of them translate well to the screen, but what can you do?

In other news, my brother's wedding lurches from crisis to crisis, at least if you're keeping score along with my mother. Last week it was whether or not they'd be married in a Catholic or a Lutheran church. Now she's moved on to righteous indignation because I'm not in the bridal party. I don't really mind (one less bridesmaid dress to buy!), but apparently it's the principle of the thing.

And on a completely unrelated note (or is it?), the latest random comment of my Human Records professor: "Even the Catholics were not so pessimistic." I haven't written poetry in years, but it makes me want to write a poem.

Off to Ohio tomorrow for a Hindu wedding. I'm very excited; hopefully it will be more interesting than the usual Catholic/Protestant ceremony.
