How do you blog about nothing?

If I knew the answer to this question, I would have been blogging every day for the last week! It's really been a fairly uneventful stretch of time. Last week, one of my co-workers was off and the library was REALLY quiet, so work was near coma-inducing every day. Not much went on after work, so there wasn't anything to write about then, either!

I was on call 2 nights, but didn't get a call (just lost sleep, as usual). Sunday at the funeral home did bring some interesting stories. I think 5 people died in the 7 hours I was manning the phone--that would have been $400 for me if they'd all gone 12 hours earlier! Ha! Then these two completely insane women came into the funeral home crying and wanting to look at urns and questioning the craftsmanship of the marble and wanting to know where they could get one that "hadn't been touched by all these, you know, people," and it was obnoxious to the point of amusement.

Other than that, I suppose no news is good news. I've got some SERIOUS work to do around my apartment, trying to get things in order for new ("new") furniture. Mid-August is suddenly here and I am wondering where JULY went. I'll be volunteering my time out at Sully on Sunday for Civil War weekend... seems my replacement decided it would be a good weekend to take a vacation, so I offered to give a helping hand out of the goodness of my heart. This should be considerably less stressful than WWII weekend--more visitors, but even fewer things are even remotely my responsibility, and it's just for one day. We'll see! Right now, I think I'm just looking forward to September. :)
