My goldfish died on Monday. I know what people say "it's just a goldfish". But Jim has been with me through the toughest years when I was at university. Staring at a goldfish is great stress relief... But hey, that didn't stop me buying two new goldfish the next day called Merry and Pippin.

I've also been really busy at my new job this week and I'm still trying to get into a nice routine. But I did have my leaving night out for my old job and it was quite fun.

Top Ten Tuesday: Characters I'd Love to Check in With

Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme hosted by The Broke and The Bookish . This week's topic is the top ten characters you'd like to check in with. I really struggled with this one, my brain just went blank and I couldn't really think of anyone besides pretty obvious choices.

My friends and I were pupil librarians and we practically had the run of the whole library. And then, when I started University, the only library I had time for was the University library. And that wasn't an enjoyable experience. However, last summer I started going to my local library again. (I then had to stop again when I got my job.) And unfortunately, I was pretty disappointed.
