Teaser Tuesdays: 1/19

Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading. To participate, you're supposed to share two teaser sentences from a random page in the book you're currently reading.

Here's my teaser:
"So then I realized that if I took that commode extender off the commode seat and sat down on the commode, I could bend over and reach it while I was sitting down, and not hurt my legs so much. So I did that. But I still couldn't reach it, because I'd pushed it away."

~ p176 of Lunch at the Piccadilly by Clyde Edgerton
