My Status


Colleen posted this on Facebook last night:

Grab the book nearest you. Right now.
* Turn to page 56.
* Find the fifth sentence.
* Post that sentence AS YOUR STATUS. AND POST these instructions in a comment to this status.
* Don't dig for your favorite book, the coolest, the most intellectual. Use the CLOSEST book


This was her status:

It's time to slow down a bit and consider some alternative ways in which to engage our lives. --Sarah Susanka


And this is mine, from Garrison Keillor's novel, Liberty:

"I'm a fly who's been pounding glass for a long time."

Who can argue with that?

Pounding glass? Garrison has a big story on State Fairs in the July National Geographic. Check it out.

What can I say, it was the fifth sentence. It's even a little weird IN context. I may have to head to the library for Nat Geo.
