It's #MINITHON Time Again!



YOU GUYS I have decided that joining challenges is just not a thing I am good at. I get all excited and post one post (::cough::) and then I wander off, fully intending to actually blog about my reading but I DON'T and it's just a disaster.



So, to reinvigorate my blogging - the reading has taken a hit as well, but a much smaller one - let's have a Minithon this Saturday the 16th, shall we? I miss your faces. Or at least, your snarky comments.

If you're here after I've been away from the blog this long, you most likely already know the rules but a little recap can't hurt!

Accepted and Agreed-upon Minithon Guidelines are as follows:

1) Mini-everything! Mini snacks, mini naps, mini discussions (aka tweets, hashtag #minithon), and of course, some justification of why your reading material falls into the category of "miniature," the sillier the better.

2) Just 8 hours, beginning to end. We will begin at 8am Pacific time (that's 4pm UK, Laura!). And when we end at 4pm PT, everyone can breathe a sigh of relief at a job well done.

3) Two posts: one at the beginning-ish and one at the end! I'll be queueing mine up on Friday night because 8am on a California Saturday is for coffee, not for blogging.

WHEEE! I am so excited and I have *zero* Minithon excuse for what I'm reading. Should be awesome.
I have like 3 books not packed away so yeah, I'll have to figure out some way to BS this. But that's one of the best parts so yaaaay

Hurrah! Looking forward to it! Even more so, given your gif choice -- A++ madame.

I'VE STILL GOT IT! Whatever "it" is.
This is gonna be so great! Or at least it's gonna be so great for all of the folks who get to participate, of whom I am not one. I have to work this Saturday, as it's graduation weekend for the college across from my bookstore.

BUT I will check in and cheerily wave at all of you who do get to participate.

Yay for checking in! And you can always eat mini-foods at work. In fact, work seems to be the ideal place for nibbles, right?
Yessssss! Minithon! Last time my minithon was interrupted by a tattoo appointment, but this time my Saturday is free and clear! So stoked!

HURRAH! I do believe you're right, but a tattoo appointment is now an Officially Sanctioned Reason to put your Minithon on hold. I like this whole "make up the rules" part of hosting... :D
I AM SO EXCITED! I AM GOING TO BUY ALL THE MINI THINGS I CAN FIND

YOU AND ME BOTH SISTER!

My best luck has usually been at Trader Joe's with a stop at a regular grocery store for mini M&Ms (found in the baking aisle!). Mini croissants, baby carrots, mini pastry puffs... a little pretzel roll... I should go eat breakfast.
My mini pizza bagels, goldfish crackers, juice box, and short stories are READY.

YESSSS girl you are so on top of things! I have a vague inkling of what I'm going to read and eat and that is it. A mini-plan, so to speak.
Minithons are a somewhat regular occurrence around here - something like twice/year? So next time! <3
