Meme Madness

I have so much Water Works trying to scratch its way out but the extraction process is stalled. I bomb Marzouq’s blog with talky comments and refresh Krispy’s, futilely, until now. I got tagged. A book meme.

It goes like this:

• Go to the closest book.
• Open it to page 123.
• Go to the fifth sentence.
• Post the next 3 sentences.
• Post the book’s name and author.
• Tag 3 more people.

Here it goes.

I was reading it a few months ago in an attempt to recapture childhood and hadn’t yet had the heart to stick it back on the shelf.
