Tag(ged)! January 29, 2008
Posted by Anya in : spontaneous degeneration , 5commentsMy dear mother tagged me with the book tag (quite short)…
Rules:
1. Pick up the nearest book (of at least 123 pages.)
2. Open the book to page 123.
3. Find the fifth sentence.
4. Post the next three sentences.
5. Tag five people.
Well well, what do you know… I just happen to have a good book sitting here. (The advantages of when someone in your family tags you. They warn you.
)
Book: A String in the Harp by Nancy Bond.
“…You’ll have a grand morning for it. Wind’s up, but sun’ll be out in two shakes, look you. Down to Ynyslas is it, Gwilym?”
Now the tag-five-people part. *sigh* I think I’ll just say that if anyone wants to do this… you can… and if you want to just leave it in a comment, that’s good too.
So let’s see. Other than that, I’ve been up to schoolwork… talking on IM… reading a massive book about Sherlock Holmes… messing around with Hebrew, a bit. (Caleb B: “Oh, it’s easy!” A2, in response to my saying “It looks hard.”: “It is.”)
A1, is, of course, trying to keep me up on my tiny bit of German and tonight is also throwing in Old English. Huzzah.
Oh yeah, our Mexico team is… um… in Mexico for a week of various missions projects. Thus, we have one quiz team with only one person. Mhmm. I hope we get to quiz her.
Yesterday I was helping Miss Dance with her geometry. There was some concept that she was not getting, but it seemed clear as anything to me… so I said, “I shall explain this in words of one syllable. This… needs… to… be… put… into… the… –”
her: “Into is not one syllable.”
me: *sigh* “This… needs… to… be… put…into… ARG… in… a… form… like… this.”
both of us: *giggle*
Mom: “Are you working, or did you finish?”
us: “Um… we’re working!”
