jennythereader1. Grab the nearest book.
2. Open the book to page 123.
3. Find the fifth sentence.
4. Post the text of the next 3 sentences on your blog along with these instructions.
5. Don't you dare dig for that "cool" or "intellectual" book in your closet! I know you were thinking about it! Just pick up whatever is closest.
Hmm.. which book from the 6 seperate piles on my desk to use for this? I know it says nearest, but they're all within arms reach.
I'll go with the "I've finished reading this library book, but have not yet added it to my LibraryThing" pile.
From have His Carcase by Dorothy L. Sayers:
" 'Old Abel wasn't averse to a buckshee twenty quid and was willing to hand over, on condition he might have the notes vetted for him at a Seahampton bank. Alexis was agreeable and pulled out the notes then and there. To cut a long story short, they went to the Seahampton branch of the London & Westminster and got the O.K. on the notes, after which Bennett handed over the gold and Alexis took it away in a leather hand-bag.' "
If anyone wants to know about the other piles, or would like me to repeat the meme with one of them, just comment.
