Dream about Hermes

I’m pretty new to polytheism, and had been leaning Irish in my interests, until two nights ago, when I had a dream that I was trapped in an obstacle course and Hermes help me escape it, and then told me to call on him if I needed his help again with anything. This seems too direct to actually be anything from the god, but I figure I ought to acknowledge it in case. What do you guys think? If it is him, why might he do it? What should I do?

How do we feel about this book?

I almost bought this book yesterday, but I wanted to temperature check a little bit on if anyone had reviews for it/knew anything about the author before I bought it. I know she has a PhD in Anglo-Saxon, Norse, and Celtic studies from Cambridge and is a professor at St Andrew’s, so I’m inclined to trust she knows what she’s talking about, but I thought I’d ask!

Easy Stovetop Veggies

I’m living on my own for the first time at long last, and so I’ve been looking for recipes. Specifically, I need to eat more vegetables. What are easy, quick ways to cook veggies on a stovetop? I don’t want to use the over because it’s too hot, so stovetop recipes (or if you’ve got a fantastic salad) preferred!

Working in the US with an Irish Masters

Theoretically, the ALA has an agreement with the accrediting body for library schools in Ireland to mutually recognize each other. However, do employers actually stand by this? If one got an MLIS from UCD, would they be able to work in the US? As a US citizen.

Dual Masters (MLIS and Folklife)

Hi!
I’m still in undergrad and am planning to take a couple of years to work before getting my MLIS but am looking at hypothetically programs out of curiosity. I saw that the University of Indiana Bloomington has a dual masters in Library Science and Folklore. I’ve taken a couple of Folklife Studies courses, so I’m familiar with what it is as an academic discipline and how it works. The question is, is this a viable combination? Would it help me on the job market, or should I find either a dual masters in library science and say, history, or a single masters? If any of you have done it, how is the program? What are admissions like, and how was the quality of the education?

My coworkers can’t read it

My coworkers can’t read my handwriting. How bad is it, really, and how can I improve readability?
