The La La La Library<\/h4>\n

\"11-07-16_11-38-24-am\"Aaahhh… Saturday. \u00a0I slept in until noon, and probably wouldn’t have got out of bed then if I didn’t have to use the toilet and shower. \u00a0I wonder what kind of mischief I can get in to in a town like … nah, I’m just going to hit the library.<\/p>\n

I need to eat first though, and there really isn’t any place open serving breakfasts. \u00a0So… off to the Chowder House! \u00a0For breakfast. \u00a0Maybe I’ll get a chance to talk to Georgia after all.<\/p>\n

\"11-07-16_11-49-52-am\"I went to the bar, where I’d met Georgia initially, and asked about her. \u00a0The bartender had never heard the name before, and didn’t know what I was on about. \u00a0I ordered a quick charcuterie tray and a red ale, but insisted that I’d met a different bartender.<\/p>\n

“You know… Georgia. \u00a0Georgia Knupp. \u00a0Blonde hair, tattoos, kinda glows when she’s moody…?”<\/p>\n

The bartender gave me my order and made me sit in the corner.<\/p>\n

\"11-07-16_11-50-37-am\"Dammit, what was going on here? \u00a0I’ll have to call Georgia later.<\/p>\n

\"11-07-16_11-59-48-am\"I had decided to spend some time today at the library, reading up on the local history, studying some technical science journ… oh, who am I kidding? \u00a0I spent six hours reading true crime novels.<\/p>\n

\"11-07-16_12-00-47-pm\"I wasn’t alone though, there were quite a few other people hanging around on a Saturday afternoon, pretending to not read true crime novels.<\/p>\n

\"11-07-16_12-15-51-pm\"I did notice though, that people here just never seem to put their books away. \u00a0The librarians here spent a lot of time picking up after everyone.<\/p>\n

\"11-07-16_12-16-01-pm\"And who do these tablets belong to? Why are people coming to the library, not putting books away, leaving their tablets lying about, and just …. go? \u00a0Is everyone here that trusting? \u00a0Or … forgetful? \u00a0Don’t be like all those inconsiderate people, little girl, grow up smarter and better mannered.<\/p>\n

\"11-07-16_12-17-51-pm\"Dammit. \u00a0She just left her book where it was. \u00a0And there’s two more tablets over there. \u00a0I should take them home and sell them online.<\/p>\n

It was getting late, so I finished up what I was reading, grabbed a quick bite at the cafe, and returned home for the night. \u00a0The thing with Georgia’s still bothering me, but I forgot to call her and it was really running late. \u00a0Maybe tomorrow…<\/p>\n
