My neighbours across the landing, the ones who spend most evenings playing what I think is 'beer pong' -- at any rate, a game involving ping-pong balls and beer cups -- on the shared area between our front doors, accosted me on my way in tonight and asked me if I was a librarian. I get that a lot, so if anyone wonders what I look like, it might give you an idea. There are worse things to be taken for, and I don't suppose 'scientist' is the thing that immediately springs to mind on sight of a middle-aged female with big glasses, a large laptop, and an apartment that's visibly full of books even when seen from the front door.
