I’m going to see Nancy Pearl!
At least, it looks like I am. She’s speaking at NCLA this year about Reader’s Advisory (”I like this book, can you recommend some similar books?”) and I’m going to go.
What’s that? You don’t know who Nancy Pearl is?
Yes you do:
She’s the Seattle librarian who was the inspiration for the librarian action figurine. Mine’s out of the package, though, and residing on my desk, so I don’t suppose I’ll get her to sign it. Knowing me, there’s no way I would go up to her even if she was signing things, so it’s not really an issue.
Anyway, it should be fun, and it’ll be fun to say that I’ve seen her.

you so need to go, and then both of you can pose in the action figure pose. that’d be a great picture!

I’m pretty sure I’m going. But I would be too shy to ask her for a picture.

Then Mike needs to go with you. Or someone who will help you with making a photo (dang thats so southern of me to say).

Mike has class! It’s during the day. Plus, I wouldn’t want to bother her.

Im sorry, she agreed to this. She SO knows its coming. When it is, I think I might need to go on a mission.
