Like I have nothing better to do. ;=3

Book Meme:

1. Grab the nearest book.
2. Open the book to page 123
3. Find the fifth full sentence.
4. Post the text of the sentence in your journal along with these instructions.
5.
Don't search around for the coolest book you can find. Do what's
actually nearest to you (We already know you, no use trying to be
pretentious)
