Hi there! I'm Kimberly Hirsh. My pronouns are she/ her/hers. I'm somebody's mom. I work as a school librarian. I have a PhD in information and library science.

It’s hot out. I’m tired. I had a call with my doctor this morning. She’s giving me gabapentin for pain. I’m so glad because 900mg magnesium orally + 400mg transdermally + 3000mg bromelain + 50mg CBD oil hasn’t made a dent in it. My kid lost his 1st tooth & didn’t even notice.
Current phone screen. (Yesterday, W to me: “Look at all these old pictures of Jennifer Connelly.” Me: “Oh yeah, I had those saved on my computer in the 90s.” Yes. Those.)
Gonna start doing outfit of the day posts as often as I feel like it. The shirt says “What’s more punk than the public library?” You can buy one from the Mt. Pleasant Library Friends Hat tip to Austin Kleon for making me aware of it.
Woodland. Goth.
I am all in on Woodland Goth, y’all.

“You dwell in my mind like a household spirit. All that I think is followed with, ‘I shall tell that thought to Eddi.’ Whatever I see or hear is colored by what I imagine you will say of it. What is amusing is twice so, if you have laughed at it.” Emma Bull, War for the Oaks 📚💬
I made a book! The fic is Mischief Managed by touchedglitter (who is me). This is pamphlet bound. The big thing I learned was that I need a better craft knife. These pictures show the cover & the interior. For process photos, see this Tumblr post.
Just followed some Trek fan Micro.bloggers from yesterday’s roll call. I’m current on new shows & doing a rewatch of TNG. Happy to offer advice on getting back into Trek after a break.🖖🏻
