I am feeling better today, due to hearing the magic words.

I have just lent two of my friends a book each. These are both books that were lent to me, by a person who also had the books lent to her. That is to say, the books were lent, then lent again to me, who lent them a third time. They are now terribly far away from their true home. This must mean something, but I'm not sure what.
