Henry Bemis Gets a Job at the Library

My husband started his new job today.  See “New Job” post for details.   It has been his dream to have an occupation surrounded by books.  Early in our marriage he pursued publishing to no avail.  It only took 2 years of unemployment, a life altering medical event, and being over 55 years of age to land this assignment.   For those of you who aren’t familiar, Henry Bemis was a character in an episode of the Twilight Zone –“the story of a man who seeks salvation in the rubble of a ruined world” and “whose passion is the printed page.”  I think that sums it up quite nicely.   This falls somewhere between be careful what you wish for and dreams can come true.  Oh Henry.  This is your calling.  Go for it.
