I'm still awake! Barely, but still awake!
I was reading on the couch a bit ago and woke up disoriented with my book open draped on my stomach. I had fallen asleep! I looked at the clock. Only 20 minutes had gone by and I had officially taken a catnap! I picked up my book and read some more.
So that is exactly how I'm making it through the read-a-thon in these final hours: catnaps. I've had 2 already and amazingly have woken up within a half hour each time. The second time I was face down, on a big pillow in my living room floor, a book open in front of me. I don't know why I woke up and didn't sleep through the rest of the night, as tired as I am, but it is only proof that my mind wills to finish this thing!!
It's now 2:20 A.M. PT and I am really hearing my bed calling my name. I am SO close to finishing The Crowning Glory of Calla Lily Ponder which I have been reading for most of this day. (*Ever get nearer to the end of a book and scream inside, Let's finish this thing already!! I have.)
Total Pages Read so far: 460
Mini Challenges entered: 7
Challenges won: none
I feel like I could be doing sooooo much better than I am. Although I did take a nice break for dinner and some time to watch a most important hockey game, I feel that I should have long ago finished the one book I've been reading all day and moved on to something else. I feel that I should've read more pages so far. Hmmmm...something to think about as 3:00 A.M (the 22nd hour) approaches.
