I’m not going to do the one word meme that’s been going around. Because to be honest I’m afraid of the one word people would use to describe me.

But I found this other meme and it looks fun, if a little similar to one I’ve done before. But I can’t think of anything else to write about today.

Closest Blue Book Meme
1. Grab the nearest book with a blue cover.
2. Open the book to page 86.
3. Find the first full paragraph.
4. Post the text in your journal along with these instructions.
5. Don’t search around and look for the coolest book you can find, just the closest blue book.

This book was sitting flat on my desk within about four inches of my right hand so it was easy to find.

“She really knows how to write from instinct & innocence. Few women can do this. Joan Kerouac… a new writer on this old horizon. I see me & her cutting around the world in tweeds, yass…Mierschom {sic} pipes with youknowwhat in them, he he.” —Jack Kerouac

from page 87 (page 86 just has a photo) of Women of the Beat Generation
