Im sorry guys. This is going to be my last post.

I tried but Ive just been up for too long. My head isnt clear and my eyes hurt.

I got in 16 hours and $100 for my charity. I wish I could do more.

Next year I will do it again and make sure I am on the A-shift. That will be so much easier for me.

It is not to late to donate, I will be taking donations for the rest of the day. Please give if you havent already. RAINN is an amazing charity and deserves every penny it can get.

Again, Im sorry I am giving up after only 16 hours. I feel terrible but I cant keep my eyes open.

Goodnight :(

This looks really interesting and possibly cool. Its the teaser for Pixars new movie "Up". Check it out:



IMDB summary: In this "coming of old age" story, a seventysomething hero, alongside his clueless wilderness ranger sidekick, travels the globe, fighting beasts and villains, and eating dinner at 3:30 in the afternoon.

M is for Movies: What is your favorite? Do you have a favorite genre?

My favourite of the moment would have to be The Awful Truth starring Irene Dunne and Cary Grant. It is a screwball comedy from 1937 about a couple getting a divorce and sabotaging each others relationships. Even though it is 70 years old it is still very timeless and hilariously funny.
My favourite genre? OLD.

 Ok now I am watching Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. 

All the kung fu action revved me up a little bit. I took my vitamins and walked around a little bit. Hopefully I will be good to go. 

I feel like I am getting a cold. I could just be over tired though. Even though I have only been blogging for 14 hours I have been awake for 26 hours. I am going to pass out soon. 

I really want to finish this blogathon. I did it last year, I cant drop out early. Rob is awake now so at least I have a IRL cheerleader to keep me going. If I have to drop out then I have to. I wont be too down on myself about it. $100 for RAINN is way better than I expected. 

Ugh I feel all vomity from too many energy drinks. Let this serve as a lesson to you kids. Too many Monsters = swirly stomach ache.

I is for Interesting Link: Post a link to a website you find interesting

Most of you who read my blog know that I was looking for a place to watch Mamma Mia online. Well I found an awesome site where you can see pretty much any movie that is out now. That is, if you dont mind the occasional subtitles or mediocre quality.

http://www.watch-movies.net/release_date/

I find movies interesting :)

H is for Higher Being: Are you spiritual, religious, nature-loving, etc? Tell us about it and DO NOT argue with others about theirs on their blog! Play nice.
I believe in God but I dont think I could be called actively religious. I was raised Catholic in a very religious Italian family. I was in the childrens choir and even was an altar girl for several years. When my grandfather passed away I stopped going to church. He was the glue that bound me to religion.
Now that I rarely go out I will sometimes watch church services on TV. I make the sign of the cross everytime I take the Lords name in vain but that is just because Im weird.
I guess Im a fallen Catholic.

You are on a plane that's about to crash. You have time to make ONE phone call. Who do you call and what do you say?

I am assuming that Rob is on this plane with me because I would be too scared to travel alone. So I would call my mom. I would tell her that making her my last call should make up for all the times I didnt call her. I would also tell her to get my best friend to let my online friends know because she cant handle the computer herself. 

Oh yeah and I should probably apologize for being a sucky daughter sometimes.

 Holy crap there are 11 and a half hours to go. Time is not flying anymore :(

I am watching Babe. Im such a geek. 

Im also on my second Monster. I am so overtired that the taste of it is making me sick. But I need it to keep me going. 

It is cloudy and humid out. There is a weird van parked outside my house. It is a kidnapping kind of van. An "Ive got kittens in my van, step inside little girl" kind of van. An Amber Alert van. Maybe it is a surveillance van. 

Tired paranoia has obviously set in. 


This is no good.

F is for Family: Tell us about yours or if you don’t like yours, tell us about your ideal one

My family is very small. It is now just Rob and my mom. My family used to be huge but with my grandparents died a whole generation of family members. Its sad because I miss my grandparents so badly. I dont know my dad. He left when I was 6 months old. I only saw him once in my life and that was when I was 8. He lives in California with his new family and pretty much ignores that I am alive.
I dont mind my family the way it is and I dont think I would change it. My mom is a pain in the ass but she is getting better about letting me be an adult.

I wish I was an A-shifter. I am about to crash royally. I think I need another Monster.

I am watching Juno. I guess its a pregnancy movie marathon. I have no idea what I will watch next but it has to be something invigorating.

I am crashing. Somebody help meeeeeeeee.

D is for Diet: What are your favorite foods?

I think its been established that I love peanut butter. I also love sushi and sashimi. If it werent so expensive I would eat it everyday. I like egg rolls a little too much also. Basically anything bad for diabetics like myself.

C is for Career: What is your career? What would you like your career to be? Explain.

Right now I have no career. Before I went crazy I worked as a bank teller, not sure if that counts as a career. I hated it so I'm hoping I'm not a career bank teller. So my career is to sit on my butt and blog I guess.

Someday I would like to be a tattoo artist. I went to art school so I am hoping to someday do something with that and not waste it. I feel like I waste it every day.

B is for Blog: How many incarnations has it seen? What do you mostly blog about?

I've had this blog for 2 years now and it has undergone many appearance changes. Most of them were cutesy girly themes. I think I need a change now. The whole paisley sidebar and Natalie Wood header kinda clash. I just never feel like making a new one. Any suggestions?

As for what I blog about....well I blog about me. I treat my blog like a paper journal. I type out my thoughts and feelings and shit like that :)
I feel like I am missing something because I'm not into fan fic or fandoms or anything like that. Are old movies considered fandoms or does it have to be like Doctor Who or something? I dont know these things. So I'm guessing the answer is probably no.

I'm going to start playing the alphabet game from the day of blogs website. good times!

A is for Amazing. Tell us why you are amazing. Everyone is in some way or another.

I have pretty shitty self esteem so this is a hard one for me. I dont really think of myself as amazing. I guess I am exceptionally patient and open minded. I am a great listener and always try to be as supportive as possible to my friends and family. I am pretty introverted IRL so I would rather be the silent support than the one telling all of my problems. I guess thats pretty amazing, right?

What makes you amazing?

It is distantly thundering out. I don't think there is any danger with using my laptop though. It sounds really far away.
The sun is officially coming up. Man, it's 6 am! Time is really going by quick thank the lord.

Someone asked me earlier if I had children what would I name them.

This is actually something I think about a lot. Probably because I want to have children soon. Ideally I would like to start trying in January or something so I can have a fall baby. I am a fall baby so I am biased.

If I had a girl I would name her Catherine Irene. Catherine was my grandmothers name and I just love the name. It sounds so sophisticated and classy. Irene is after Irene Dunne who is my favourite old movie star. Also a classy name.

If I had a boy it would be named Aubrey Kilgallen. Aubrey after Aubrey Beardsley who is one of my favourite artists and Kilgallen after Dorothy Kilgallen, my favourite journalist. I think they are really timeless names that will not get the kid made fun of hopefully.

Okay the thunder is getting closer. Scarrrrrrryyyyyy....
