Did I miss a memo?

That's two patrons in a row who have needed Ref assistance and who have also had their shirts on inside out.

The guy's t-shirt, no problem, easy to understand.

The woman's shirt with ruffles & buttons, though....

That's a first...

Fairly certain that a pre-nuptial agreement is being hammered out at the table across from the Ref Desk.

Either that, or a very, VERY amicable divorce.

Either way, suppressing the urge to holler, "DON'T YOU ATTORNEYS HAVE OFFICES YOU COULD DO THAT IN?"

You may be a reference librarian if...

...if you've ever had a young child of 6 or 7 ask where the movies are.
"Do you want kid movies or grown up movies?"
"...Grown up movies!"
You direct the child towards the movies, and a smaller pops up alongside.

"What are you going to get?"
"I don't know."
"Well, what does this one say?"
"The...forty...year...old...something."
"Is it any good?"

Yes, the movie in question was "The Forty-Year Old Virgin."

You may be a reference librarian if...

...if you've ever conducted a reference interview with a man wearing a garbage bag as a poncho...and it's not even raining.

...if you've ever looked up the availability of DVDs just to make the point to the couple that yes, we ALL now know EXACTLY which movies he wants to see, which ones she wants to see...and which zombie flick they're letting their 9 year-old son pick.  And then, knowing that the two movies they are hollering about back and forth across the library are long overdue, you join the conversation.
