Day 10
... geek then one of the pretty damn computer literate. I've also been fortunate enough to live in one of the most internet savvy countries in the world for almost 15 years. If you fall behind with new technology, you fall behind in every aspect of life, so I'm glad people can come to the library and get the help they need.

I had such a long talk with Katie's mum and we were both crying, she was just saying how much me being here meant to katie and that when she was getting ready she couldn't stop saying stuff about me.
