"I exist, even if I wish I didn't"

We pulled it off, 24 hours of staying up, 24 hours of RPing. It was touch and go, but I suppose that's to be expected. Amber and Kaie had peoeple worried about their health. Kit lectured about sugar at one point... it starts getting hazy after that.
I think the main thing is we did it. Upwards of a hundred blogs did not.
And while we have pledges at the official blogathon site listed at 302, we actually have more from people who didn't/couldn't sign up to the site. So we definitely beat our last record.
I did learn that sleep deprivation without a project makes me very depressed. I'm just glad no one in the chat could actually see me at one point.
Oh yes, Kaie pimped up to Neil Gaiman, who posted it in his blog. It was amusing to see the rest of the BTers in the chat lose their minds for a few minutes over that.
And Kit wrote beautiful Trigun snippets, which in turn inspired some poems from me, one I actually like. They're all over at BT Lite, a side blog we had for no RP posting.
There's probably more, lots to recap, but I should be asleep. Trouble is, between one Red Bull (that did absolutely nothing) and four Vanilla Cokes (more effective than the RB), it's hard to actually sleep. But I suppose I should still lay down and wait for the brain to get off the drugs.
Edit:
Before I forget, it's still not to late to make a pledge on behalf of BT. Pledging doesn't end until sometime Monday.
Again, thanks to those who sponsored, those who pimped, and those who blogged/chatted.
Sorry, spammers forced my hand. Comments reviewed before being published.

One thing I discovered about myself this year; if I do not take a nap for at least a few minutes after work, my legs will hurt all farking night.
This is yet another reason why I will not work this coming school year. I like my legs too much.
