Goodnight!
Considering the way I felt when I got up yesterday morning, I really can’t believe I lasted this whole time. It’s done, though! :-) Somehow from one year to the next I forget how hard it is to come up with something to say every 30 minutes for 24 hours straight. I’m sure I’ll be horribly unprepared the next time I do this, too. LOL It’s fun, but I’m glad...
One More
One more after this!
I so love it when I rent a DVD and it’s so dirty and/or scratched that it won’t play properly. Oh, well. I’ll be going to bed soon anyway. I’ll see if I can do something about it when I get up.
I feel like I should have posted more about Love146 during all of this, but for the last few days I wasn’t sure I was going to be able to do the...
7 AM
I keep thinking I’ve skipped a post somewhere in the last couple of hours. I’m almost positive I haven’t but I keep thinking it for some reason.
I just had breakfast, so, when this is over all I have to do is move about 3 feet from where I am now and fall into bed! I’m so looking forward to it!
Morning
It’s been morning for awhile, of course, but I can see daylight now. I’m getting hungry so I’m going to go see what I can find for breakfast.
Music
I’m listening to iTunes now, but it’s not exactly helping. I’m not really in the mood for anything loud, heavy, etc., but something really relaxing doesn’t seem like such a great idea either. iTunes on shuffle doesn’t seem capable of giving me anything in between.
Two more hours! I hope I can keep my eyes open. It’s getting harder by the minute!
Jinxed
I think I jinxed it by commenting in my last post about time going fast. The last half hour dragged by SO slowly!
I finished watching “Up.” As I predicted, it made me cry again. It’s not sad, really; I don’t know what it is. If you’ve seen it you probably know what I mean.
Just three more hours to go now! I’m getting ridiculously sleepy. It doesn’t help...
4:30 AM
Time started really dragging for a little while, but it seems to be going fast again now. That probably won’t last, though.
I’m almost to the end of the movie - going to go watch the rest of it!
Almost There!
I honestly wasn’t sure I was going to make it through this, but I think I can manage four more hours. I’m very tempted to go change into my pajamas, but I’m kind of afraid to get too comfortable.
It just now occurred to me that I should probably be checking my LJ messages just in case anyone’s contacted me that way. I hardly ever use LJ so I just hadn’t thought of...
Reminder
I don’t think I’ve posted my FirstGiving link in awhile, so, there it is! :-) I’m completely serious when I say that even a $1 donation would be appreciated!
I don’t remember if I posted this already; just in case I didn’t:
Love 146 on YouTube
5 More Hours
Five more hours to go! Watching “Up” is a good reminder of why it’s a good thing I don’t wear mascara. Movies don’t make me cry that easily usually, but the beginning and a scene toward the end of this one will do it! I’m going to go get back to watching it now.
Up
I just put “Up” in the DVD player. Well, the one on the computer, that is. That should keep me awake for a couple hours. I’ve seen it before, but hearing my dad and stepmom rave about how much they liked it (they saw it recently) made me want to watch it again. Just out of curiosity, for anyone who may have the DVD, is there a trick to getting to the menu? I’m assuming...
6 More Hours
Six hours to go now! Comments are still impossible, unfortunately. I should just remove the Comment option from my posts, but I keep forgetting to do it. I wish I’d known about it before this started so I could’ve either fixed it or used something besides Tumblr. I do love Tumblr, but not having comments during this kind of sucks.
Nothing
This always happens to me at approximately this time when I do the ‘thon. I am completely drawing a blank. I cannot think of a single thing to say right now.
“Some people put up walls, not to keep others out but to see who cares enough to...”
– unknown. I saw this the other day and really liked it, but don’t know where it originated. I also hope I’m remembering it correctly!
Distracted
Almost missed this one! I logged in to Facebook and got distracted playing Frontierville. That’s my newest addiction, as if Farmville and Farmtown weren’t enough!
I think it’s time to break out one of the DVDs I rented earlier. Now I just need to decide which one first.
If anyone’s out there reading, if you can think of any questions to ask me, please do! It’ll give...
Color Meme
I can’t think right now, so I’m borrowing this meme from here
RED*ORANGE*YELLOW*GREEN*BLUE*PURPLE
Look around you and find something from each of the above colors.
Red - the spiral notepad in front of me. Orange - the Diet Sunkist I’m drinking. Yellow - my tin of Thinking Putty. Green - the putty inside the tin. :) Blue - a few blue pens. Purple - my PocketBac holder from Bath...
