The next job I got was working at a bookstore, called The Catbird Seat, in Portland. I loved it. I was the data entry clerk. The owner would see book reps and mark orders in catalogs, which she would pass on to me, and I would create the orders. It's where I learned to 10 key by touch. It's also where my love of and addiction to books blossomed! That 40% discount was hard to pass up and I acquired many books and expanded my intellectual horizons the four years I was there almost as much as the previous 4 years at college. It was also the budding of my spirituality, due to discovering great books on astrology, tarot, psychology (esp. Jungian) and Goddess spirituality. It was also where I met my later (first) husband, Brian.
