(and I'm at home with a bottle of wine, trying to write a final exam)...
Instructions:
1. 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.

"Then she began calling her closest friends, and she stayed up late that night on the couch talking with them. She slept for a while and awoke from a turmoil of blue-suit nightmares. She was boiling hot, her throat was parched, she had a fever...Where am I? - and there was Addy, purring at her side."
The Demon in the Freezer, Richard Preston
A very favorite book of mine; a true story about smallpox.
... great stuff... nothing like sitting at home and enjoying a bottle of wine...
