Happiness is…

…not having to get up at five-something in the morning on a Saturday.

That will be all. Thank you.

In theory: You follow the instructions on the box, heating up your frozen entree in the microwave and then, as indicated, “let sit for one to two minutes.”

In practice: You get your food out of the microwave as soon as it’s hot enough to eat so that the three people behind you in the lunchroom queue don’t string you up by your toes for obstruction of mealtime.

Today was a bit hazy. Why no, I didn’t get a whole lot of sleep last night. Sleeping away seven hours or so out of the middle of the day sort of screwed with that a bit. This is why I’m going to bed at about 9:30 instead of my usual time of… er… later. Ahem.

Tomorrow I’ll have something more coherent, and maybe even interesting, to post. Tonight, however, I’m just letting you know I’m still alive. Until tomorrow, then, I bid you good night!

Blogathon 2005 is over. I made it. So did a bunch of other brave, foolish, wacky souls. Go, us! And now, bed. Good night… or day, whichever you prefer. Don’t nobody go tryin’ to wake me, y’hear?

I’ll tidy up the ring and webcam code and other stuff… later. Like, Monday later. It’ll keep.

I don’t know about you… okay, I may not even know you… but if you’re anything like me (namely flat out exhausted) you’re looking forward to crossing the Blogathon finish line.

But hey, I did it. I raised somewhere in the area of $150 (there were at least two “premature donations” that didn’t get sponsorship credit), and I stayed awake long enough to do it. Another half hour and I can go to bed. Luckily, bed is about three feet away. Heh.

After the finish-line post, you won’t see me again until some time Monday. I’m sure you’ll manage. See ya!

I just heated up another bowl of ravioli. I figure this should be enough serious fuel to see me through the last three and a half hours. Mind you, I may need the occasional snack, but this should do it for serious foodstuffs. Question is, what do you call the 2:30am meal?

I will, however, probably need to brew up more tea. That’s not a bad thing, mind you. It gives me something to do, which at this point is positively golden.

Now to see if I can stay focused enough to crank out that last album review+promo. After that it’s just hero profiles and randomness until 6am…
