Wow. I am so glad I did the Blogathon … especially now that it’s over (at least the A schedule, the B group is going strong until midnight EDT tonight). I got a few hours of sleep and while I don’t feel brand new, I feel a LOT better than I did at 8:59 this morning! I actually got all teary when I hit “publish” on the last post of the ‘thon … I was so tired and exhausted and proud of myself and my friends who did this insane thing and very very happy that I had people who sponsored me to help me with this cause that is important to me. Speaking of, you can still sponsor me for a few more days so if you’d like to, please go here.

As a treat, I bought myself a t-shirt and mug. And, yes, I’m sure I’ll do this crazy thing all over again next year. : D

I want to cry. I can’t remember the last time I was so tired/happy/exhausted.

I am really glad I did this and I am also really glad it’s over.

I’ll recap later, when my brain starts working again. Like Wednesday. LOL

Here’s Mr. Man.

Reggie is asleep facing away from me so a photo of him would be boring.

And no way in hell am I posting a photo of myself after being up for 24 hours.

30 minutes to go y’all … I plan to be asleep at 9:01!!!

I’m in bed. Feels so good! Reggie is sleeping down by my feet. My friend Denise just called to check up on me, and now I have an hour to go. There is light at the end of the tunnel! Frankie just asked if she missed anything fun during the night; I can’t even remember LOL. All a blur. I set my alarm for 1:30 p.m. Hopefully that will be enough sleep to keep me up for a few hours, then I’ll go to bed early tonight and sleep in tomorrow before I take off for Michigan. At least I don’t have plans Monday so I can drive whenevah …

It’s 7:30 a.m. I have posts to do at 8, 8:30 and 9 and then I can sleep! Wheeeeeee! I am so glad that Laci set up a chat room over on Stickam. I wouldn’t have made it without those ladies:
Laci
Sodapop
Chatty
Tense Teacher
Kentucky Gurl

And then there were even people who weren’t doing the Blogathon, who just hung out with us! Lucy, Tori and Heather were all around to keep up company. If I forgot anyone, I’m sorry. Brain not so good right now.

Edited to add:
I’m an idiot. Laci just pointed out that I forgot Frankie, J, Misfit Duck and Geek XD. Good gawd. Y’all know I need a nap, right????

I’m so whiny. OMG. Laci is trying to be a cheerleader and shit, and Sodapop, Chatty and I are just like, ugggggh, make it stop. I keep telling myself, $285. This is for $285 for my charity. But OMG it sucks that it is once again light out — and no I didn’t think to watch the sun rise, I was curled up in a ball on the couch lol — and I have to wait 2 hours before I can sleep. My tummy hurts, my body aches and I can barely focus on anything. Yes I’m a whiny biatch!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And VH1 is repeating videos. WTF?????????

Uggggggggh …. OMG I will never be so happy to hit the bed as I will in 2.5 hours … and I think the cats will be too LOL

I am feeling very physically tiiiiiiired …. three more hours y’all …

Doing Blogthings and watching infomercials …

You Are 88% A Child of the 80s

There’s hardly a moment of the 80s that you missed out on. Was there ever a better decade? As if!

You Are An Attention Seeker

You’re only human, so you can’t help but want a little attention every now and then. You love the spotlight, but only when it’s well deserved. You’d hate to be known for the wrong thing. And you also don’t mind sharing the spotlight. You can easily give someone else credit or a complement. You know there’s enough attention to go around, and it makes you happy when your friends shine. You come across as: Friendly and interesting People may wrongly think you’re: A little more modest than you actually are!

Your Aura is Orange

You’re a bit of a loner, but you’re never lonely. You know how to entertain yourself. Whether you’re trying an extreme sport or a new weird food, you always live on the edge. The purpose of your life: testing limits – both physical and mental… and then telling people about it. Famous oranges include: Timothy Leary, David Blaine, Tony Hawk, Carey Hart Careers for you to try: Snowboarder, Circus Performer, Undercover Agent

You Are 4: The Individualist

You are sensitive and intuitive, with others and yourself. You are creative and dreamy… plus dramatic and unpredictable. You’re emotionally honest, real, and easily hurt. Totally expressive, others always know exactly how you feel. At Your Best: You are inspired, artistic, and introspective. You know what you’re thinking, and you can communicate it well. At Your Worst: You are melancholy, alienated, and withdrawn. Your Fixation: Envy Your Primary Fear: To have no identity Your Primary Desire: To find yourself Other Number 4’s: Alanis Morisette, Johnny Depp, J.D. Salinger, Jim Morrison, and Anne Rice.

You Are the Middle Finger

A bit fragile and dependent on your friends, you’re not nearly as hostile as you seem. You are balanced, easy to get along with, and quite serious. However, you can get angry and fed up with those around you. And you aren’t afraid to show it! You get along well with: The Index Finger Stay away from: The Pinky
