So our "staying up til the sun comes up" was buckets of fun. It wasn't as productive as I'd hoped, for me at least, but it was much more fun goofing off. We did write for most of the time, however, with minimal breaks. A brief rundown: we watched Election, then started writing at 10, fueled with caffeine/cocoa concoctions from BJs. Took a Taco Bell break at midnight, and my fashion-blind hobo look was well-received among the rude students on campus. ("I like your stripes! And I'm not just saying that to be a douchebag, I really do!!" - thank you, Mr. Drunk Basketball Player, it really means a lot.) Once we were fed and re-fueled, and one episode of LOST later, we started writing again until 2:30, when we went on a carrot-filled walk around campus in the rain and our leggings. We just missed the cutoff for ordering cookies (but more than more than made up for it with last night's stroke of delicious luck!) and then wrote til about 5:30, when we just lost it. That's where our pretty pretty artwork factors in. We watched an episode of The Office, and then it was finally 6:53 and it was officially light out. Our all-nighter was done, so Meg went downstairs to bed. I was wide awake, and frankly quite proud of myself, until I decided to lay down around 8 and woke up around 12:45, very confused as to why Scooby Doo 2 was on TV.

We're doing really well on our word counts, and it's probably a good thing that we're both ahead, seeing as this week is fiendish. I'm sure Meg will tell you her scary amounts of things to do, but I have: a Bio proposal, a Bio paper outline, a Fiction piece due (the scariest of them all), a Grammar quiz, Grammar flashcards to consequently make and study, a Latin test, and, oh yeah, a completed rough draft of my autobio for class. Fun!

Thursday Meg and I are going to be smart monkeys, and hopefully that will be a welcome stress-reliever. And then we'll have 10 days off from school to make our nanos the best things ever written in a month! :-P
