Well another Blogathon comes to an end. Thanks to all our sponsors and to everyone who came by today and kept this fun thing going until the wee hours.

Go get some sleep, you all deserve it.
More charades, including 'sex kitten', 'christmas', 'pirate with one leg that is dying', and 'scrambled eggs'.

It's almost bed time!
Only an hour and a half. We're all getting pretty darn sleepy and silly, and only a few slips of paper left in the bowl for charades, then I do not know what we'll be doing for the rest of this thing.

Some slips have included things like 'Giving Birth',
'Lesbian Camping Slaughter Movie', 'Ebola', and 'Deviated Septum', needless to say we've been doing a ton of laughing.

I've had the most fun I've ever had during a 'Thon this time for sure. I will however, be super excited to go to bed when we're done.

Only three posts left! It's so exciting!
We are playing Cherades. At 4 am. It is very very funny.
We're playing Password. It is super fun.

It's time for a Story-A-Thon!

I'll begin:

Once upon a time in a Galaxy far far away, there lived a little boy who decided that he no longer wanted to be a little boy, but insted wanted to be a...

To be continued...
Seven of us are playing a game of 'Would You Rather' which is very silly and fun game when you're super tired. It is nice and cool outside, and was even drizzling earlier, it makes it really comfortable. Almost too comfortable, I'm awfully sleepy.
The kids are back from their movie, and now the house is noisy again! Yay! Something more to keep me awake.

Also, we lit a bunch of candles on one of THREE cakes I have sitting around the house (long story) and made Robert blow them out for his birthday. Not that any of us need any more sugar, most of us are pretty wired as it is.

The cake is a chocolate oreo with some type of cream filling. It's...very sweet. I think I'm going into shock.
It's posty time!

Savvy left (which is sad, because she LIVES HERE) and the other kids aren't back from their movie. John is watching Naruto and Fred is laying on my bed surfing fellow 'Thonners sites for something good to read.

It's quiet enough now that I could probably start reading again. I wonder how many books I would have made it through by now. Maybe next year.
So I lost backgammon and then we quit a game of checkers halfway through. Fred is getting sleepy. Sav and John are watching Office Space, which is a great Blogathon movie.

Other kids are yet to return from their movie.

I've been up since about 4 am, so I'm starting to get a bit sleepy. I need something to wake me up! Any suggestions?
Savvy is not that impressed with Rent. Score one for my side of the team. There are some things, she says, that can't be expressed in song successfully, unless it's animated.

Terra, Cory, Robert and Tiffany have gone off to see the Simpsons Movie. The rest of us are just going to bum around here and figure out what we're going to post about for the next few hours.

Fred is writing in the dust on my bedroom lamp. Also, he kissed me, which he only does when he's drunk. I swear though, he didn't buy the wine...at least not that I saw.
I'm awaiting more poetry from the masses, so for now I have no new poetry to post.

Most everyone will be leaving soon to go see The Simpsons Movie for Robert's birthday, but they should be back later this evening, with more fun poetry and hijinks.
Terra and Cory are here! Hurray! Now the 'Thon is complete, with DBS.
I have a ton of food, this is our 'Thon spread for the evening:

Veggie platters (carrots, celery, broccoli, coliflour, olives (green and black), green pepper, baby corn, mushrooms), green and red grapes, cookies, cake, pie, jelly fruit candies, chips, bean dip, soda, chocolate milk, iced tea, coffee, juice and whatever else I threw at these people to eat.

Yummy. Anyone want some?
I hope you are enjoying the Magnetic Poetry, each of us is taking turns writing it, and some of them have been pretty funny.

As for the reading, I feel like it's super rudeness to read, so I haven't been at all. I may start again later when people start dropping to sleep, or taking naps.

We're only 5 bucks away from 100, so if you've got some extra cash and want to put it towards a good cause, please toss it our way. We'll love you forever!
Savvy made it! Woot! Now we're only missing a few of our awesome 'Thonners. I think maybe two of them (and they know who they are) fell asleep. It's ok, I'll let them sleep a little while and then I'll wake them up.

Since it would be rude to read with people here, I need to find something else to do during the 'Thon. Some of the things we will be doing is guest posters and myself will be posting magnetic poetry from my fridge. Look forward to it.

Also, there may or may not be bad karaoke. We'll just have to wait and see.
Ran off really quick to pick up some food. I've got hash browns, yay!

So I haven't read anything since the last post, because I can't read in the car without yuking all over the place.

In happier news, Tiff arrived! We found her wandering aimlessly down the street so we lured her into the car with candy and promises of breakfast.

I've got 60 pages left. Fred is going to get me breakfast. Yay!

I took a break from reading to watch Katie, Melissa's neice in her very first cooking video ever (of a series of gluten free cooking videos shown for the 'Thon). Go over and watch it, and tell Katie what a great job she's doing!

So far, I've managed 115 pages. I'm hoping to have the book finished before 10:30 rolls around so I can start my next book. That leaves me with about 93 or so pages left, which shouldn't be a problem in an hour.

Fred installed a new hard drive on to my system, and set my old one as a slave, so now I've got a brand new drive, but nothing on it.

This is dangerous, because it's got so much free space...and there is so much...oh...erm...

My point, is that I had to reinstall Rhapsody which means I once again lost my playlist. Nearly 70 days worth of music. I'm broken hearted, and asking you for help.

Give me some suggestions on artists I need to listen to during the next 24 hours. I will love you forever.
