today a patron at the ‘brary told me that i was so sweet and that she likes how i’m always smiling.

really? heh, i’ve got her fooled, huh?

not really. i do smile A LOT at the library. i greet the people all smiling and polite cos that’s the way my mama raised me. i notice though that i smile way too much. not at the ‘brary, but like, at the store and out in public. i’m constantly making eye-contact and nodding and smiling a, “hi, hello.” like i know EVERYONE. when in fact, i don’t. and i’m sure people are all, “do i know her?” “is she one of those really cheerful ‘never met a stranger’ weirdos?” “is she stalking me?”
no, no, and no.

but sometimes i catch myself and i get giggly remembering will ferrel in elf all, “smiling’s my favorite!” plus, i want our ‘brary to be awesome. i don’t want people to think it’s a stuffy ol ‘brary. so i’m all cheery cheerson, until that is, you’re rude to me or one of my co-workers. then not so much with the cheerful help. and if you’re a repeat offender? you don’t even know.

but that lady was so nice and it made my day that she thought i was sweet. see? i get to be around people like her every day. i’m always telling bad stories on here, so i wanted to share an awesome story with you.
