Read-a-thon Halfway Video
Video time: 30 seconds (I'm not cool enough to figure out real vlogging). :P
My Google Reader must hate me because I'm not getting the 'Thon posts on time...saw this at Anna's...been waiting for it. Since the video this morning, I stripped the makeup, so this is Trish in the raw. Looking a tad tired, but still me. :P And yes, it is not uncommon for me to normally talk with this much enthusiasm.
A note on IHOP. We had planned a 2 am meeting, but decided we probably weren't going to want to eat pancakes that late/early. Plus driving that late (I have bad night vision). Plus carb overload.Mid-Event Survey:
1. What are you reading right now?
Fun Home--Loving it!
2. How many books have you read so far?
Two Books: The Outsiders and Catch Me If You Can
3. What book are you most looking forward to for the second half of the Read-a-thon?
Finishing Fun Home and reading Beedle the Bard
4. Did you have to make any special arrangements to free up your whole day?
Nope. Free as a bird. :)
5. Have you had many interruptions? How did you deal with those?
No real interruptions. Hubby was gone most of the morning. I'm about to have to get into the car to go to IHOP. Wish I could teleport like Hiro from Heros.
6. What surprises you most about the Read-a-thon, so far?
How fast time goes!!
7. Do you have any suggestions for how to improve the Read-a-thon next year?
My usual quips about the mini-challenge times (some people are giving the time in Pacific instead of GMT; not knowing exactly when a challenge starts and ends; my reader not updating quick enough and me missing a few here and there). Otherwise, YOU HOSTESSES ARE DOING A FANTABULOUS JOB!!
8. What would you do differently, as a Reader or a Cheerleader, if you were to do this again next year?
This is my third time, so I've got the rhythm down pretty well.
9. Are you getting tired yet?
Yup, a little. Hopefully I don't go into a pancake coma later. :)
10. Do you have any tips for other Readers or Cheerleaders, something you think is working well for you that others may not have discovered?
YOU GUYS ROCK! COMMENT COMMENT COMMENT!
I'll be reading for another 30 minutes or so and then off to IHOP. See you in a few hours.

You are one of those people who still looks amazing even without make-up. How do you do it??
See you shortly! Pankcakes here we come!
That was a fun video! lol Enjoy your pancakes!
I didn't put make up on at all today and posted a much closer up picture of me and the Bug.
Enjoy IHOP!
You are so cute!
I love seeing the video's you make! It is like we are all together! Keep doing those! I miss your face! IHOP here you come!
You look cute with or without make-up on! I love the enthusiastic videos! Yay for pancakes and hash browns. (and hopefully no upset tummies!) See you in a few minutes!
Love your videos. I really should learn how to use the camera on my computer one of these days. lol. I'm snuggled on the couch now. Enjoy IHOP and catch up to you later.
I think you look great without makeup. You're doing great so far with the reading. Enjoy your meet-up!

Oh Trish, no fair, no fair, no fair!!! How can you still look so adorable at this point in the game?!! And how can you still sound like you've got so much pep left in you?!! Am I envious...well, yes Trish, I am! But I still love ya! Keep up the great work!!!
BTW, Annie cracked up like you wouldn't believe at the comment you left her! :)
Mmm, Ihop...
Yay another vlog! Your silly, I think you look great without make-up! One of these days I may just do my own vlog (maybe) lol.
Have fun and enjoy your IHOP break - I had to google to find out what a Rooty-Tooty-Fresh-N-Fruity was - zomg it looks so yummy :P
You look great Trish...great video! Everyone seems to be having fun with the readathon.
Love the videos...have fun at IHOP!!
Wow, you are doing really great! Hope you catch up on your sleep tomorrow :)
I guess great minds think alike!! I just did a vlog and then found yours. I love that little "fruitty-tutty-pancake" chant that you did!! You are so funny :)
Keep up the reading friend!
Your wish is my command and here I am to comment :-)
You look so bright eyed and bushy tailed, despite claiming to be in the raw. I don't know, I think you need to bottle up that enthusiasm and sell it trish. REally.
Enjoy iHop!
Your vlog was terrific! CHEERS!!!
I think Kim L said most of my comment already. But I did want to say I burst out laughing by/at your answer to the last question.
This post sounds so cute and hyper! I'm glad to hear you're enjoying yourself so!
