The adorable Cheysuli tagged me for the Book Meme.
Here are the rules:
1. Pick up the nearest book.
2. Open to page 123
3. Find the fifth sentence.
4. Post the next three sentences.
5. Tag five people and post a comment to Mickey once you have posted it.
Due to the fact that my human is fat AND incredibly stupid, I found it exceedingly difficult to lay my paws on any good books. After hours of hunting, I eventually dug out one of my favourite novels:
A Little Princess by Frances Hodgson Burnett.
The content of this book is inspirational. A young lady is thrust into a life of starvation and drudgery. As unbearable as it becomes,she uses her resourcefulness to make her dreadful situation better. Sound familiar?
But I digress - as per the meme, the following sentences are from the book:
' It was not a very long chase. The Monkey prolonged it a few minutes evidently for the fun of it, but presently he sprang chattering onto Ram Dass's shoulder and sat there chattering and clinging to his neck with a weird little skinny arm. Ram Dass thanked Sara profoundly.'
Now, I should like to tag:
Daisy the curly cat
Storm the Furry Fighter
Jimmy Joe
Skeezix
Marie the Defender

I haven't read that book. I should read it so I will have more insight into your poor horrible life!
I like those sentences, because monkeys are funny! We have been very, very, very bad about doing Memes lately. I will try my hardest to do it though!
Bendrix: I wanna chase a monkey! I wanna chase a monkey! I could teach him how to get me treats and food from the fridge. Since monkeys already thro poo, I wouldn't even have to exert myself for revenge! The monkey could do it!
No wonder you like this book. You seem to have so much in common! Well,except for that monkey part, but you do have baby Mao ;)
I purr for you,considering your situation.
Purrs Mickey
Oh yes, we can see the similarity with your life of starvation and drudgery. Do you think this will embarrass your human into making improvements to your sad and deprived life? Somehow we doubt it.
Gee, thanks fur taggin' me, Yao-Lin --- now I can't wate for the FL to git home to help me do the meme!!!
That is just so apropos to your sad situation, Yao-Lin!
That is one of my favorite books!
Oh we love that book & the movie!
Oh how you suffer Yao-lin, just like our Tigmut'hep does here... ;) Maybe you two should get together and write a book on slave training and making life good for a needy cat!
I simply cannot understand why you like that book Yao-lin, although that story sounds REALLY familier....
Oh that sounds like a book I should read! ~Queen Snickers
We'll have to get that book at the library. Sounds like good bedtime reading!
