So, once upon a time I was writing a story in which reference was made to the 'Bobby Singer School of Library Science.' I was so taken with the cleverness of me that I said to myself "Self, wouldn't it be great if we could buy a t-shirt with that exact logo on it?" At which point I chortled and went on with writing my story.

Well, the idea kept on popping up at the strangest times. So finally I decided to do something about it. And after a few days of poking at the design with my novice graphic art skills, I can finally announce the opening of the Bobby Singer School of Library Science Store over at Cafepress. Cause if I'm going to make a t-shirt for myself I might as well slap it on as many products as possible and release it into the fandom wilds.

Yeah, I think I'm pretty adorable. ;-)

Oh, the Latin phrase means 'precipice in front, wolves behind (between a rock and a hard place).' Though I almost went with 'lege atque lacrima (read 'em and weep)' or 'vir prudens non contra ventum mingit (a wise man does not urinate against the wind).' 'Noli nothis permittere te terere (don't let the bastards get you down)' also has a nice ring to it. Now let us all thank [livejournal.com profile] baylorsr for so fully and excellently answering the random 'OMG what should the motto be?' email I sent her this morning.

There you go. I have once again proven that I am a ginormous dork and I love every minute of it. Also, if I put even a portion of this kind of industry into actual work I'd be the most successful law student ever. Trufax.

Wouldn't it be the best thing ever if you could get your MLS from the Bobby Singer School instead of normal, boring grad school? It's not like regular profs teach important skills like spiking liquor with holy water or how not to con a conman.

Stupid real world being dull and only semi-awesome.

And I'll only never stop being me if you neve stop being you. *pinkie swears*

Have you not been listening to me? I am getting my MLS from the BSSoLS. That's why I need the shirt!

*shuns the less awesome parts of reality*

pfft DUH! Of course you're attending the BSSoLS. Where have I been the past few forevers.

Maybe if we just dream hard enough we can make reality conform to us. Hey, if it's a cromulent theory for Gaiman's cats it could totally work for us. *nods*
