30 %

There's a 30 % chance that I'll survive the 'thon.
Will you survive the Blogathon?
At least, according to the quiz, I have only a 30% chance of surviving, mainly because I'm alone, so very alone! My husband works midnight shift, so he's sleeping now, but I'm hoping he'll call me from work when the real hard time comes, after midnight! And my sister in Honolulu says she'll call me, too. I'm already getting very tired! I haven't yet checked out the Blogathon chat rooms because I've been busy preparing things to blog. I'll keep on blogging, but please forgive me if I get some things wrong! I can always edit later.
