A short note to anyone who might wonder where I'm at early tomorrow morning:
I hereby proclaim that I am very tired, have had the flu this week, and simply cannot get up at the crack of dawn to start the marathon. While I am duly sad at my own lack of time and dedication to start on time, I will be sleeping an appropriate amount so that I do not fall asleep on the desirable stacks of books that yawn before me (pun intended).
I do hereby declare that I will be up when my beleaguered body is prepared to do so, and will be then eager to join in the festivities...thus saith my end-of-the-week, I've-been-home-sick, I'm-a-teacher-&-it's-end-of-term self.
I will now get off my elevated manner of speaking! Can you tell I've been teaching
Beowulf...and am slap-happy and tired today?!? I made a mistake in my initial marathon post, in thinking it was last weekend. Thankfully, I was corrected on Twitter, and am geared up for the REAL marathon this weekend.
My list of books to read has changed a little, but I'm still looking forward to some of the books on my original list that I posted about in my
Sunday Salon #12. I was hoping that my local library would get in Book 4 of the
Van Alan Legacy and the 4th in the
Luxe series,
Splendor. Unfortunately, they haven't been "processed" yet, so I'll stick with the mile-high pile I still have to read.
I'm sorry you're sick. :( I'm glad you're still doing the read-a-thon, even if you can't start crazy early in the morning! Lol-you'll probably last longer.
ReplyDeleteI hope you feel better soon! This is my second readathon, and I don't plan to read the full 24 hours. I need my sleep. Hope you have a good time even if you're under the weather.

I hope that you feel better when you wake up! Eat lots of chicken soup.
ReplyDeleteGood luck with the readathon, and hope you're feeling better soon!
ReplyDeleteI hope you feel better soon and manage to get some reading done. :)
ReplyDeleteI think you should definitely sleep in as much as you need. You need your sleep so you can start to feel better. :)
ReplyDeleteYay readathon!
Welcome to the read-a-thon (when you get up, hehe-I know you need to sleep in)! Can't wait for you to join us!
ReplyDeleteI hope you feel well enough to join in for part of the day!
