Oh, hell, I forgot what I actually wanted to post about ... lot of irritation going around.

Must be prickly heat.

So, anyway ... why won't my public library website remember my frickin' library card number. I can't remember it ... it's like 16 or 20 digits long! And it's not like I also have to remember a stinkin' password ... just select my branch, put in the card number, and it goes right to the online services where I can check out an ebook and send it to my Kindle. Content, incidentally, that pays attention to it's "return" date and deletes itself off the device whether I'm done with it or not. It's not like walking into the library and checking out a bunch of books that I have no intention of returning, and maybe I'll sell them for crack (which does happen at my branch, incidentally) ... it's data.
