hehe (and I was just reminding Scooper this morning that tomorrow is Caturday...!) I think that LOLcats have definitely become a 'guilty pleasure' in my life. I don't think I'm the only one who fixates on cute cheezburger animals, as revealed in the responses to the poll taken yesterday on the Librarian's Guide to Etiquette:

Guilty Pleasures, Sharing Your

"Librarians often have guilty pleasures that belie their professional personas. Your unhealthy fascination with celebrity gossip magazines, World of Warcraft, hip hop music, romance novels, or prostitutes won't qualify as a guilty pleasure if you're shamelessly blogging about it at the reference desk." (Thanks J. and Sal: your blog always makes me laugh) :-D

So Long and Thanks for all the Fish

These are some of the volunteers/students (+me) who worked at CEA in May and June.
From left: Joeren, Danny, Isa, Manuel, Mona, Rodrigo, [me] and Ana.
The photo was taken in La Cueva del Pescador (after a soccer game, I think).

I'm so glad to be home in Canada.

Happy Canada Day, Everyone!
