Correction
I feel like I need to make something clear about the post below:
I don't look like Parker Posey. (More's the pity!) I can only attribute it to the idea that I'm a librarian, but not an ancient dusty librarian with glasses, lace-up oxfords, a tweed suit, and a bun. I suspect the lady just thought I seemed a smidge cooler than her image of a library lady.
Because me? I have crazy red hair, especially now that it's getting humid. I'm not as tall or svelte.
I'm not imbued with cool indie cred like Ms. Posey. I'm not a movie star.
But I was a librarian in Manhattan for three years, so there is that...
And while my vinyl is not dewey'ed, it is alphabetized. (Oops, maybe one admission too many there?)

My vinyl is alphabetized as are my cd's, my dvd's, my books, my spice rack. Do you sense a little obsessiveness there?
I don't care what you say. From now on, I'm picturing you as Parker Posey. :)
Our CDs are alphabetized - how else can you find anything?? Such books as are actually on shelves are, too - within categories, no less. (Though not dewey'ed.) Most of my books languish in boxes. It makes me sad...
(Just wait till a few more kids leave home! I have grand plans for the attic, now in use as a bedroom.)
My vinyl's alphabetized, too.
All I can say is - High Fidelity by Nick Hornby. Next to that guy, alphabetized looks lazy and haphazard.
You were a librarian in New York ... love that :)
While my vinyls are not alphabetized but I do have a fairly over-developed oranization fettish for many other things.
A red-headed Parker Posey then?!
Well, I'm a new mama blogger (new blogger, not new mama) and I've just discovered your site. I'm also new to Manhattan but the thing I find most interesting about your site is your name. Maybe we were meant to be friends.

Regardless, from now on in my mind you look just like Parker Posey. Did you see her in the latest Pepsi commercials? Cracked me up.
I love everything about Parker Posey. I love the way she speaks. I love her name. I could only wish someone would mistake me for Parker Posey. All I get is Alanis Morrisette. Sigh.
You're a librarian and therefore it would be a violation code if your vingyl was not alphabetized.
Vingyl LOL! That's was a nice typo.
Whoops, sorry.
Yep -- what the others said. You can protest all you want, but until we finally meet in person, you will be Ms. Posey-like in my mind.
I never dressed like the stereotypical librarian, either. People were always surprised when I'd tell them my career -- don't know what they expected me to look like, exactly!
Parker Posey's the coolest. Except in "The House of Yes"...she's just creepy in that one. As another frizzy headed red head I'd take the Parker Posey compliment and run with it.
Whatevs. I've seen you in person and you're totally cute.
