eta, come here a minute...

Anna, 'scuse my putting this here, but I thought it was a funny story, though not worth starting a new thread for:

I'd had some library books that were way overdue. One of those things that the longer you put it off, the harder it gets to go ahead and do what you're supposed to, you know? Well, yesterday morning our dog sounded off with her big deep "something's here that doesn't belong" barks. I looked out front, and there in the driveway was this huge orange truck: the size of those big utility company trucks with the ladders on the sides. Well, this truck had 'Library' on it, and my first thought was, "My God, they've come after the books"! It turned out to be somebody taking a minute to drop off something for my husband, but--in the afternoon, I returned those books.
