Meme

Pick up the nearest book to you.
Turn to page 45.
The first sentence describes your sex life in 2012.


"Stop complaining about missing lunch."

Hmm...

There don't seem to be any books around anywhere, which (apparently) means there are no words to describe my sex life. :)

That works!

Scrutinizing him, she said, "Maybe you're not a celebrity; maybe I've reverted back to my delusional period."

Scary/creepy. Yours seems so much better.

Yes, that's creepy, but it does sound a little bit like my fantasy sex life.

:D

The book nearest to me when I saw this meme during the day was a health manual, so that didn't make sense. Here in my apt, the first book was crossword puzzles ("Get one's feet wet?") so I'm just going to declare this meme a "nearest novel" question, which leaves me with -- ha --

"Got to release the vacuum," he explained.

I dunno... "Get one's feet wet?" sounds like it could match some people's sex lives.

As does the novel sentence. :)

If you don't count my writing notebook, it's the Jefferson Bible (idek) which says, "Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savor, wherewith shall it be salted?"

Huh. No matter how I read that, it doesn't bode well ;).

To me, it shows potential. My translation: "You're a great person, so if you're not enjoying things, how can we get you back on track?"

"Next to me was a young official with an angry, sleepy face."

Well, okay then. :-D

You picked a good icon -- the quote makes me think of The Annals. Maybe a sequel to Torchlight is in your future?

*hugs*

He had registered at Fitzwilliam with the help of an essay he penned for the entrance examination, "Similarities and Differences between teh French and Russian Revolutions."
My sex life in 2012 is going to be really, really boring.

Two revolutions are boring? *hugs*

I hadn't thought of it that way. Maybe I'll switch to homosexuality?

In a medium skillet, saute' onion, tomato, curry powder, and salt in oil until tender.

Perhaps this means mine will be spicy?

Spicy and sizzling! Enjoy!

The book nearest to me doesn't have a forty-fifth page. I guess this means my sex life will be nonexistent?

[identity profile] deelaundry.livejournal.com 2012-01-13 01:04 pm (UTC)(link)
I think it means you need longer books. *hugs*

This immediately reminds me of House & Wilson. Is that bad?

Okay nearest book..."Er was een prijs - nee, er waren twéé prijzen uitgeloofd, een grote en een kleine - voor wie de grootste snelheid kon bereiken, en dan niet de snelheid in één enkele wedstrijd, maar over het hele jaar genomen."

[identity profile] deelaundry.livejournal.com 2012-01-13 01:06 pm (UTC)(link)
Not surprising at all it reminds you of them!

You can't leave me hanging by not translating that sentence! I want to know!

LOL here we go: "there was a prize - no, there were TWO prizes, a big and a small one - for who could attain the highest speed, and not in just one race, but over the whole year" (it's a huge book with Hans Christian Andersen's fairytales).

Well, believe it or not the nearest book was a Bible. I opened it to page 45 and the first sentence was "Now Dinah, the daughter Leah had borne to Jacob, went out to visit the women of the land." Hmm...okay, I'm pretty certain that I'm straight, though I admit all of the men in my life have been pigs. Is this trying to tell me something? Lol!

Maybe 2012 will be your year for new, renewing female friendships, to sustain you and bolster you to kick the pigs out of your life. Thus leading to space for decent men -- as well as those female friends. : )

That would be lovely! Let's hope you're right:)
