I have an invite code for Bluesky if anyone wants/needs one? Just DM me and I'll pass it on!

Edit: Sorry, it's been taken! But when I get some more I'll post here before anywhere else. [/edit]

I applied for a library job again and, after thinking I hadn't even been called for interview, I got an email asking me to attend one! Which was way after the dates posted on the listing, but whatever.

Anyway, long story short, I didn't get it because I dropped the ball on a couple of questions (it was nothing like the last library interview I had). But the guy who was presumably in charge of hiring said that it was clear that I was passionate about libraries/books, so I should keep applying because something that suits me will eventually come up. And I thought that was really nice of him!

(Also my boss and one of the ladies I work with were rooting for me to get it, as they both said it would be the perfect job for me. Which is also nice and I also don't think they're wrong).

In other news, I made myself a table mat and a coaster from scrap material, and I think they turned out really well! Pics coming soon on my sketchblog.

I did it in part to use up some sewing thread that I have been hoarding since I was a literal child. I remember not wanting to use it because I really liked the colour (blue, predictably), and I wasn't very good at sewing, so I didn't want to waste it. So it sat around for thirty years, waiting for me to do something with it.

And I was really pleased with the end result of using it, so yay!

I think I'm going to make some more coasters, and maaaaaybe another table mat. I don't know. I haven't decided yet.

I think that's all I have to say for now, so I shall end this here.
