Well, the second interview at The Liberry went less well than the first, in the sense that we weren’t INSTANT SOULMATES. But I still think it went well.

For one thing, I didn’t scream like a Twihard when I saw the Wall O’ Languages.

Dear Optimus Christ, they have one enormous shelf devoted to studying languages—everything from Arabic to Zulu. It was enough to make a language nerd spontaneously combust, except that might burn the books and we can’t have that. So instead I just had a quiet internal spasm of pure language joy in the middle of the interview.

“Any questions?” said my potential manager.

“Can I have this wall?”

Man I hope I get this job.

*drools*

Pretty much all my library has is a selection of books in Spanish with a couple of things in French thrown in for good measure.

Haha, I can picture you saying that too, all wringing hands and wide eyes. It makes me laugh. I hope you get the job as well!!

This may be an advantage of living in the land of SIL and missionaries.

Well, no, but don't worry--I already have a Klingon book.

(WHAT???)
