Follow-up

Well, after some discussion with the sisters… I’m the new lead singer of the Three Weird Sisters. We’re all going to wear our hair like Emma Thomson’s character in the Harry Potter movies, and we’re going to have tattered robes with neon green and pink striped stockings with platform baby-doll shoes. This is disturbing…. Most disturbing of all is me as lead. But I was assured by the sisses that as the 3WSs that we would only screech at the top of lungs so vocal ability was not an issue. Plus they said that if I wanted to, I could resurrect my alto saxophone from its highschool graveyard.

In the meantime, I checked the 1950s bathroom on the fourth floor, and yes, it is still there. But the little, round, pink chairs have 4 legs, and not just three. However, I did get a weird look from a passing shelver who happened to see me just as I openned the door to peak in.

And in hopes of finding other portals to the unknown. I checked a woman’s bathroom in another part of the basement that had the promising room number of 42. Unfortunately, that bathroom was not too unusual, except for the old furniture and some standing water (from that flooding last week). Oh, it stank!

Well, that’s all for now. Until later…

It turns out that our homeschool playgroup is having a Halloween party at the Austin Children’s Museum on the 29th, and the parents are encouraged to dress up too! What are you doing that weekend Jen? Shall we make it our debut performance? We couldn’t ask for a more friendly crowd…. ; D! I think I have that pair of really awful glasses from when I was in 10th grade around here somewhere. I wonder what happened to my college graduation gown, the one I splatter painted for a Pine Cove costume…

On the novel front, I love Joanna’s suggestion for a protagonist, but who should our antagonist be? Maybe it should be the library itself and the plot revolve around multiple adventures in the different portals until the librarian solves the secret of …? Any suggestions? Could we make the womens bathroom 42 susceptible to the improbability drive? Please?

Or the library acting as an accomplict to its evil architect, out to force the world to read nothing but science textbooks and Milton? BOOO! BOOOOOO!

Oooo. I love costume parties. I’m pretty sure I have at least one graduation robe still in my closet.

As for evil libraries, I like the OU library. It has a sense of humor. But maybe there could evil libraries too. Perhaps all libraries connect throughout time, so I can transport to Norman 1950 or Alexandria 350. And I also kinda like science textbooks, and Milton isn’t the end of the world. Wait. Maybe he is.
