Pick up a book

Read about this on another blog, thought it was kind of fun

1. Grab the nearest book.
2. Open the book to page 123.
3. Find the fifth sentence.
4. Post the text of the sentence in your journal along with these instructions.
5. Don’t search around and look for the “coolest” book you can find. Do what’s actually next to you.

This is what I ended up with, I had to reach for a secone book because the first one I picked up only had 122 pages. What does that mean?

"Those we love don't always love us back or honor their commitments."

I didn't want to end on such a sad note, so I grab the next book. I didn't think I would end up grabbing three.

"We will want to keep our bodies clean and healthy because we are proud of them."

The fifth sentence on p. 123 of the nearest book to me was:
"'Freeze!'"
Just so you know.

To the most extreme of these antistatists, writing up any government at all was a kind of defeat, and they conceived of their role in the congress as making the new government as small as possible.

No idea what that says about me. BUt there you go.

Tons of stone thundered past as the desperate struggle for life went on; but the giant weight gradually drew them all toward the rim; they were unable to check its ponderous drag.

So does Melissa write a blog now? If my interest in that is wierd I retract the question.
