the forest was emerald

maura @ 10:11 pm

Earlier this week at work I noticed a tiny plastic turntable sitting on the table in the tech services area (where my cube is). I asked a coworker about it and she replied that she found it in one of the boxes, and that she didn’t know where it had come from.


(keys for scale)

I couldn’t resist, so now it’s stuck on the wall over my desk, right next to some of Gus’s artwork and a Made With Love By Hannah postcard.

I’m thinking that this is the universe’s way of telling me that yes! I should put a USB turntable on my xmas list. So I will! And who cares if I never have time to digitize all of my records, anyway. As long as I can get Thomas Dolby’s 2nd album (“The Flat Earth”) in there, that’s good for a start.

Where did it come from?

Library elves!

And boy, are they mad. It’s really hard to find a decent turntable these days, particularly in that size.

No, the elves need new turntables too! Because on Jan 1 we all go digital! So it’s a sign for *both* of us.
