Tadaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

From around 4:30 until about 7:30 this morning … wow, did things look dark. It seemed completely impossible that a woman whose head turns into a pumpkin at midnight, who will be turning 47 years old in a couple of weeksish, could conceivably manage to actually see this through to its conclusion. But … I’m here. I did it! Along with a valiant band of diarists here on OD and a much larger community of bloggers all over. This is world changing magic of a high order, I believe.

I know I need loads of sleep. My angel boy woke up about 20 minutes ago and was so happy that he was still with me (okay, minus a few hours but …). He has now fallen back asleep in a new angelic position in my bed.

I shall sleep in his. Here he shall be fanned. In his I shall be air conditioned. Mmmmmmmmmmmm. Sleep. For a year or so.

Or … not. Here’s to the International Gay and Lesbian Human Rights Commission, to my generous and wonderful sponsors, to all the dedicated bloggers who managed to do this for 24 hours through.

If I ever wake up again, I want to celebrate. The first order of business will be making good on one small pledge I felt able to make.

I’m babbling and rambling … but moments after I press the save button I shall be headed toward the bliss of oblivion.

Blessings on us all, please; blessings on us all.
