In my egocentric conception of when everyone else does work, I discovered that the world--or more accurately Milner Library--does not revolve around my schedule. I got up early this morning and was extremely proud of myself for heading off to the library to work at 8:30 on a Saturday morning. Unfortunately, the library does not open until 9:00 on Saturday.
In less frustrating news, I'm a huge fan of Project Gutenberg and Google Books. Instead of having to drive to the Newberry Library in Chicago to look at obscure, early 20th century publications of child diaries, some lovely person had already scanned them in. Likewise the search featured that combs the document for specified words saved me literally years of my life.
