[UPDATE] Quirky Acuity - May 4, 2006

Quote:
Enjoy the Silence


There's a lot to be said for library life. It may be repetitive, uneventful, tedious, repetitive, uneventful, tedious and repetitive but a certain amount of routine is reassuring sometimes. Things are orderly and peaceful.

In the past few weeks, I've settled back into life as a librarian. That might sound like a big yawn to you, but I've had all the excitement I can take recently. Cymbalisty's absence isn't so obvious now - it's like the edges of the world have healed over the space where he used to be. Having Scarlett back is, though I hate to admit it, pretty good too. Even though she seems to have spent most of the past couple of weeks asleep (exhausted from her travels, I suppose) I can tell my dad's glad to have her back in the house. She even gave me my boots back.

One result of this monotonous tranquillity has been a lack of entries here. Sorry if you feel like you've been missing out, but I guessed my trips to the stack and back wouldn't make for riveting news. I've had a few poker nights and made a steady profit. My dad seems to have stopped growling about Caine. Kurt has been off in his own little world again. Life has been beautifully unremarkable.

I guess the only slightly strange thing has been Miranda. After being chummy as anything, she seems to have stopped talking to me lately, just the past few days. I asked Jason if he knew what was up but he thought she was just being extra-super quiet and efficient. Frankly, I'm wondering if Kurt and Miranda are about to make some kind of big commitment (he did take rather a lot of interest in some of her recent furniture purchases) and they think I might not take the news well. But really, tact and diplomacy are one thing, but blanking me in the indexing room is quite another. Perhaps she's busy thinking of how she could redecorate Kurt's living room. In any case, she dashed out just now without a word to anyone. I'd contact Kurt to ask him if I'm supposed to take over her afternoon slot at returns, but I don't think he'd take that well, somehow.

N.B. Good to have Violet back - I missed her, and her dry sense of humour. Also, she should bring back the "Word of the Day" feature. *nods*

I read this as the 'calm bofore the storm' message, as now everyone, including good old Vi, is going to have to get involved in sorting out this Miranda business...

So, according to Violet, Scarlett is back, but I haven't seen anything on The Scarlett Kite since March 15, nor anything in Scarlett's Story since the "Coming Home" entry. Is this because Scarlett's apparently been sleeping all the time, or am I missing something?
