Meme, nicked from [personal profile] wordweaverlynn: Pick up the nearest book to you. Turn to page 45. The first sentence describes your sex life in 2012.

Nonfiction edition, from Dysfunctional Families in the Wessex Novels of Thomas Hardy by Lois Bethe Schoenfeld: "Here Hardy stresses the need for close, intimate relationships between the siblings, if not with the parents as well, although he does not offer us solutions to the changing form of the family as a result of social and economic change." Ahahahaha INCEST? LOLWHUT.

Fiction edition, from The Woman on the Edge of Time by Marge Piercy: "Receptive." OKAY THEN. I'LL TAKE THAT.

I did not expect to reply to this, but I idly (asexual-ly!) picked up Crossfire by Dick Francis (top of library pile, haven't read it) and got:

A strict routine, regular as clockwork, with no decisions having to be made by me.

OH NO NO NO NO THANKS. (The next two sentences are: At first I had hated to have such a straightjacket to my existence, but I'd become used to it. I suppose one gets used to anything. Yikes. The shadow of Freud hovers over me, ready to cure Frigidity by any means necessary.)

So I randomly grabbed the first book on my shelf that I saw, which is Neil Gaiman's Neverwhere:

"Now he could go home and explain to the girl that nothing had happened."

I don't know why, but that struck me as hilarious and appropriate.

In the realm of "odd and strangely charming" - this meme was going around facebook, and a friend of mine who commented there posted the exact same sentence. Words hold the world together. :)

I don't know what this says about the quality of my sex life, but man, I've got to find better books!

I got, "The following sections explain your options." A bit colorless, but probably the best I was going to get from a software manual.

Dear Spouse got, "Ferncloud pushed her way out of the nursery." I think we're going to have to get out of the nursery ourselves real soon.

"Fitting that it should be in a library, wedged somewhere on one of these shelves."

...yes, please?

Maybe I am secretly 12, but I am utterly adoring this meme. The Hardy incest thing made me laugh like drain.
