Many people were confused or simply thought I was ridiculous when I told them about participating in my first 24 hour readathon. It was lots of fun with my friend Tricia. We spent most of the day at her house reading on her comfy couches and being served by her smiley husband, then spent the night at a Southpark hotel with yummy food from Maggianos and Cheesecake factory. (Meanwhile Austin was at home feeding the kids Cici's pizza for under $10 for the whole family).
Despite the lack of snacks to shovel into our mouths the whole time -Tricia doesn't believe in snacking while reading, or ever - we still had a great time.
I read for about 14 hours of the 24, completed 3.3 books and 823 pages, had lots of laughs and even stayed up past 9 pm for my first time!
By the way, despite what this picture looks like, we had our own beds and didn't snuggle on the same pillow the whole night.

Yeah, eating is totally against my religion. :)
That is a fantastic idea! Also, I am totally shocked that you don't stay up past 9. Are you for real? That is the only time I can get my reading in.
