My read-a-thon was interrupted to run an errand for Dave. I picked up everything he needed at the store in one town and drove it to the next town to meet him (only 7 miles apart). We transferred the supplies from the car to the pickup and I headed back to my comfy couch. But it was not to be - the pickup refused to budge. To be more specific, it refused to budge in reverse. "Drive" was still functioning, but not all that helpful when parked at a curb. So - blah, blah, blah (cause I know you don't really care about the details) Dave got where he was going, blah blah blah, I'm home again.
I'm caught up on all the mini-challenges to this point (at least the ones I'm still coherent enough to enter) and I'm going to settle into bed with my good book. It's 1:15 a.m. and we have to be on the road by 8:00 a.m. for a family reunion.
So good night, sweet read-a-thoners. Parting is such sweet sorrow, but I'll never get out of bed when it is 'morrow. (My apologies to Shakespeare.)
It sucks when things like car troubles get in the way. Hope you had fun readathoning though!
