It's amazing how much a proper meal will help keep you going. A lot of people order pizza though ;)Elliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14377404526123600035noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3868395077988310106.post-52964935446751319292014-04-23T01:38:11.174-07:002014-04-23T01:38:11.174-07:00Chili sounds fantastic and I definitely need to st...Chili sounds fantastic and I definitely need to stock up on coffee.

This is the third one for me and my daughter and we have developed our own traditions, cake and pizza and onesies. We doze on the sofa occasionally but avoid going to bed as that takes up too much time. I have to do a full day at work before it starts here in the Uk so I do tend to need a bit of rest to make it through the 24 hours. martinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14260048849955077472noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3868395077988310106.post-45551417001538857522014-04-22T12:28:56.157-07:002014-04-22T12:28:56.157-07:00WOOHOO!

I am so excited about a chance to finally do Dewey RIGHT (rather than working right through both days and getting a good eight hours' sleep in the middle!), I'm not sure quite where I'm going to install myself to avoid waking everyone up in the night, but... sod it, it's the weekend, we'll get around it somehow. I have a tentative book pile in mind, but I'm sifting through a few other candidates over the next day or two to create a final TBR. I'm won't read them all, but at least I won't have to go combing through boxes of books at 3am this way, I'll already have a few to choose from!<br /><br />We're already blog buddies - HELLO FROM BOOK ADDICTED BLONDE - but I think I'll probably update on Twitter as well at @BlondeBookGirl :DElliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07246472269477492583noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3868395077988310106.post-90841115678993735602014-04-22T07:49:17.641-07:002014-04-22T07:49:17.641-07:00Yay!

I always make a big stack of short stories, YA books, children's books and graphic novels before the big day. It keeps me from wandering around my library and trying to pick out my next book when I should be reading. I also get some fun snacks for the big day. This time it's chips and salsa, apple chips, carrot sticks, double shot espresso drinks and I have chili already made for dinner that night. Have fun!

I have my stack ready (although I've changed it several times already). I haven't planned out my snacks yet but I know I'll make a run to Dunkin for a break at some point in the day and for dinner I'll definitely be ordering pizza because it's easy and won't interfere with my reading time. :) My goal is 12 hours total, but we shall see what happens!<br /><br />Good luck...I'll check your blog and see how you're doing!<br /><br />http://bookjunkie54.wordpress.com/<br />Twitter - @bookjunkie54Brandiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14650612252443297585noreply@blogger.com
