You ask why I'm posting an Idle-Chat Thread called libraries? Because I'm sitting in one.
Literally just sitting. As I need to not be at home and have to wait for my boyfriend to get off and come get me.
Now... I've been here since 2:45, it's now 5:45, and it'll be 8:45-10ish before I'm free of the place. So I decided I'd have a conversation about it. Otherwise known as, stating my current thoughts as not to be so damn bored.
1. I love books. 2. Being around lots of books, is very happy-fying to me... except for the fact that I have to be near my computer to get text messages and do XDDA workish stuff. 3. I have a strange desire to jump on top of the bookshelves and run around, jumping from one to another like frogger. 4. LIBRARIES ARE COLD AS SHIT. 5. I'm hungry. Wait... I mean... Orlando Bloom is staring at me from a poster on the wall that says, "Read! Orlando Bloom @ your library"... And I'm good with that... I don't mind the hotness that is Orlando Bloom staring at me... Now... Julia Stiles on the other wall... she's starting to bug me. 6. I hate cubbies. But I love cubbies. But I hate cubbies. I love the slight privacy... but I hate the blocked in, claustrophobic hell of a laptop cubby. 7. I'm a horrible person who can't stand listening to tiny children trying to read. I know. I'm a bitch. But I was reading The Hobbit at age 6 perfectly. Even in First grade I wanted to go steal books from the kids trying to read who couldn't do it as good as me. I deserve to be shot. 8. Why must they hang things on the ceiling that are supposed to be one thing but are definitely NOT. Those paper balls are not planets god damn it.
and. Most importantly.
9. I'm about to deck the little dude with the book cart in the face, for defeating the purpose of a cubby. I'm here for my privacy. WHY MUST YOU KEEP ACTING LIKE YOU'RE PUTTING BOOKS BACK WHILST STARING AT MY SCREEN!? I CAN SEE YOUR DAMN REFLECTION IN MY SCREEN.
I think that's about it for now.

LMAO! Oh my that so gave me the giggles from reading. Yet I soo know how you feel. I know this sounds weird but a lot of times I would skip class and just hang out in the library or I would skip school to hang out the big large public library. I know was and still am super weird but huh stay in school kids and huh don’t do drugs or some crap. Anyways I love libraries too. I get all giddy from the old book smell and I love how cold it in inside the places. Oh and the cube spaces are the best! Its likes you could plot to take over the world in one and no one would know! However here ish a list of things I think Libraries should add! A cafeteria Beds Tvs A all night pass just for me so I could run around while no one else is there. Or maybe rooms for the night yes that would be super cool. Doors on the cubes so you could really be in a cube and not worry about people spying on you from behind. A wall of that see threw mirror glass stuff they have at cop stations and trap the kids in there little JR section in there where we would not have to hear them and they could not see us yet patents could see them! Humm that’s all I can think of at the moment maybe others have ideas on how to make it better too xD

Sounds more like you want to run a hotel with books than a library. That's be funny, though. Stumbling down into a "lobby" full of bookcases to find something to read while you drift off. Lol.

TVs would really, really defeat the point of a library.

That's true.
Although, the only time I've watched something in a library, we watches in off a projector, and it was the DeathNote movie --- nothing really literary about that. xD;
