This little book meme is shamelessly lifted from

1. Grab the nearest book.
2. Turn to page 126
3. The 6th full sentence is your life in 2026.
My nearest book is The Shining by Stephen King, so we're off to a great start before I've even opened it.
I'm going to include the following lines since this is actually a bit of dialogue followed by a lovely little sinister premonition.
"I doubt it," Ullman repeated, and he sounded sad. "The place in Florida is a dump, if the out-and-out truth is to be spoken. The Overlook is my real job. Take good care of it for me, Mr Torrance."
"I think it will be here when you get back next spring," Jack said and a thought flashed through Danny's mind.
(but will we?)
So, what this reads as to me is reluctantly turning over responsibility of something to someone else and it all going to hell in a handbasket.

The 6th sentence is something about the hobbits Bilbo, Merry and Pippin but I don't know who they are so it doesn't mean much.
So I assume my 2026 will be full of people I don't know, who may or may not be hobbits.😉
