flitting

There is probably a better term.

In vanity i googled “manguel octopus’s garden” to see if my Garden sale blog post still comes up first (it does, despite the fact that according to wordpress stats it has only been read by three people – those three readers if astute will have noticed that I incorrectly claim that the entry – one about what happens when you google the text “manguel octopus’s garden”- is an example of Heisenberg’s uncertainty principle when in fact it’s an example of the often confused observer principle: see Wikipedia entry for explanation).

Satisfied my post still rules that obscure roost, my eye settled on the fourth entry found by Google which displayed the excerpt: ” My happy feelings for Alberto Manguel and his yummy bookishness were ..” from somanybooksblog.com, a well maintained blog by Stephanie.

So then I searched her blog for “Manguel”, finding first of several her entry on The Library at Night, ["My love affair with the Library at Night has come to an amicable conclusion."], immediately followed by her Page 123 meme entry. Hence my Page 123 entry.

Silly enough for you?
