Book Meme:

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.
6. Post your entry in whichever journal you found this, as well as on your own page.

here it is:

Like one of those statuaries in the bottom of the Fitzwilliam, in Cambridge.

(anyone know what book it's from?)

that's about all i've got right now. the weekend was great, and i'm tired now. sushi dinner friday night with a large-ish group of people to celebrate the visit of [livejournal.com profile] shellefly. we got one of the tatami rooms at maneki, ate tons of sushi, then went to a nearby bubble tea place. on saturday i saw a friend who's leaving for a year in new zealand, with his wife of one week. [livejournal.com profile] glaucon and i went to see billy bragg, who played kane hall on the UW campus, oddly. this guy from indiana opened for him--he was good but billy, of course, was better. it was a great show. i really love the lefties--and as [livejournal.com profile] glaucon observed, it's so rare, these days, to encounter a singer who's not afraid to get up on stage and sing a union anthem. i added that he actually *wrote* the union anthem he sang, which is also remarkable. yesterday another large-ish group (overlapping but not identical to the aforementioned large-ish group) met for a barbecue, where i ate the best salsa (made by [livejournal.com profile] maeveh) i've ever had.

"When Freddy was a teenager, he had an accident and, while he was in the hospital, the muscles in his leg atrophied to the point where the limb deformed."

Hehe, good luck!

p.s. shoulda put a (sic) after the quoted sentence. or maybe i should have picked the first complete sentence. (i should also mention that the sentence is from a piece of dialogue.)
