YAAAAAAAYYYYYYY!!!
Well. How about this, then? It seems like only yesterday when…
Um, yeah.
So, first of all, big giant thank yous to my sponsors, Tom, Dale, Anonymous, Paul, Caryn, Levi, Ragnhild, Manymuses, Heather, Mindy, Alicia, Craig, Cathie, Linus, Brittney, Melissa ‘Prana’ Clancy, Tamelyn, Esther, Lynn and Jowo. Because of you, we raised $579 for The Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation! Hurrah! This has far exceeded every single goal I set for this Blogathon, so thank you thank you thank you! If I had the mental ability to string worthwhile sentences together right now, I’d say something really good about how awesome I think you are, but since I, uh, don’t, just know that I am so grateful.
Also, thanks to everyone who kept me entertained with emails and comments. There’s no way to fully explain how much good it does to know that someone is reading.
And finally, to Caryn for keeping it real. Or interesting. Or real interesting. Like so:
jamelah (8:15:03 AM): i could actually be asleep now
caryn (8:15:33 AM): hahahah
caryn (8:15:36 AM): yes, this is a dream
caryn (8:15:45 AM): my name is david hasselhoff
jamelah (8:15:51 AM): hahahahah
jamelah (8:16:06 AM): i may quote you
And then I did quote her.
I may have had some sort of point I wanted to make with this post, but if I did, I forgot it a long time ago because I became too obsessed with thinking about how much I want to go to sleep. So, goodnight, sweet Internet. I think I’ll probably be asleep until Wednesday, but I’m sure it’ll all be here when I wake up.
Welcome. & have a good nap.
g’night, jamelah
woo hoo! i paused for a bit before submitting my request for the haiku, but it probably did wake you a bit, didn’t it? i figured an urge to break me would probably convert to fuel.
all the madness from checking your and caryn’s blogs pressed me through this terrible writing assignment and moving half of my life in the rain. i might try developing a blog and some sort of readership for next year’s blogathon. oh, the horror.
i think that writer’s block + blogathon is actually pretty good. at least, in your and caryn’s cases.
Congrats, jams, and fantastic job with all of it.
Just call me David …
Congrats on making it though, awesome job sweetie!
Yay! Sorry I wasn’t here through the Long Night of Peril, but I’ve just read along in recap: well done. And flights of angels, etc. etc.
$579! That’s so wonderful!
Congratulations you crazy mensch you.
Yay!
I fell off the internet planet thing for a bit there, so I’ve just read through the thon-posts (at work, sh, don’t tell) now, but wow. And uhm, yeah, glad I skipped the thon this year, I feel like going to be just from reading the last few posts. Next year I probably might as well because with a 5 month old baby it’s not as if I’m going to get any sleep anyway.
Weren’t we supposed to have a “pay up!” email from the thon? I don’t think I’ve had one yet… Better go check the thon-pages.
