I am not sure how much you’ve read to gather that I can be a supreme dork; if it’s not my love for NPR that shoots me in the foot perhaps it’s my obsession with the New York Times crossword or love of non-fiction – all told my hobbies put me in the realm of dork and this new reveal will do little to negate this: LIBRARIES!
