Thank GOD it's over.

And I mean that as a reader, not as a participant.

Heh.

30 days has September, April, June, and November...all the rest have 31 save February which is 28. Until leap year.

And 30 days...we have completed. WE DID IT! (Now wiggle like Dora)

Tomorrow is the Silent Day.

HA! As if.

I will have to post in rebellion.

What a nifty tool. I will have to make myself a card sometime soon.

And yes, I'm so glad this month is over. I did feel as if I'd bitten off more than I could chew. And the buffet kept getting bigger.

I LOVE that! I loved the card catalogs, the Dewey Decimal system, the Periodic Guides. In 1974 they changed the name of our library to the "IMC" - Informational Media Center, and I knew libraries as I knew them were going to hell in a handbasket. Sure, they're still good, but so much less tactile.

Reading all of everyone's posts this month was exciting, interesting, but I am with you, very exhausting. And I can't imagine how tired I would be if I had actually participated as more than a reader!
Kudos to you for a job well done! I enjoyed reading!

How creative!

I SO did not do the November thing (can't even remember how to type it) but I admire those who did...

Nice to "meet" you!

Ditto to Slouching Mom.

Congrats to you. This was my favorite of all NaBlogClogMo posts Magpie!

Mad said...

Congratulations. Does this mean the blogosphere will become a reasonable place again?

niobe said...

This is great. And, of course, you're great too.

NotSoSage said...

What slouching mom said. As if my guilt at not being able to read very often wasn't bad enough, then you folks start posting EVERY DAY?

Respect.

Katie Zeller said...

Congrats for the accomplishment! I'll freely admit - I didn't even consider it... I don't think I have that many words!
