Our After Blogathon Plan


My Kitchen Crew worked so hard all day and through the night, and they're still chugging away! They're very excited, as this is the first year we haven't lost one or the other of them in the wee hours of the morning.

We're rarely able to sleep past one the day Blogathon concludes, so we have determined that we will be having ourselves an afternoon out.

We will drop into bed at 9AM, rise at 1PM, and leave the house at 1:15PM to go to the movies and out for dinner. We are seeing UP (the second time for Ernie and me) and Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, and we will follow it up with dinner at the Elephant Bar.

This has become something of a post-Blogathon tradition - every year we've participated, we've gone to the movies on just 4 or 5 hours of sleep.

I expect we'll all collapse half dead into our beds when we get home around 8:30PM tonight!

What's on your agendas, 'thonners?

  1. how on earth can y'all go to the movies on so little sleep?

    last time i tried that, it about killed me. (couldn't fall asleep and just as i was about to abt 6:30am, there was a fire down the street. got about three and half hours hen went to the movies. i remember thinking i didn't care abt anything but going to bed as soon as i got home.

    what's on my agenda? SLEEP (or i'd better at least).

  2. I think your plan sounds perfect - a few hours of sleep will get you through the day without leaving you utterly unable to sleep when tonight comes. That way everyone's back to normal on Monday!

  3. Hey guys, good job making it 'till 9AM! You've more than earned some shut-eye.

    This morning, Laura and I are off to Cincinatti to see "Carmen".
