This was a hybrid library conference, held on an island in the United States (Alcatraz, but off the coast of New York). It was difficult to really enjoy the event, because the President kept trying to make himself the subject of every session. I had wanted to go to the Extrovert vs Introvert session – it was my idea after all – but I still didn’t know which team I should be on. As the event came to a close, I had not had the chance to speak to any of my school friends who had flown over from Birmingham.
The good news was I was in love with ‘The Sheriff’ and the feeling was mutual. I sat in the conference lobby, wearing a hairdresser’s cape while Timothy Olyphant cut my hair. He was wearing the cowboy hat he wore in Justified. Although we knew we must keep our love secret, when he finished my hair, he kissed the back of my neck in front of everyone.
