Basically, here are all the little extra rules and things, as well as the basic groundwork for the epic quest.
1. On Wednesday, I will wake up at 6:00 am, and put up a post confirming that I am awake.
2. I will make a post every two hours, entitled “Hour 26: I can do this!” or “Hour 68: OH GOD MAKE IT STOP” or something like that. I will try to post as close to the hour as I can, but classes and such will invariably get in the way.
3. I can make posts at other times, but for those posts, the date and time must be in the title. Thus, we will have two categories have posts – Official bi-hourly check-ins, and then others for whenever I feel like it.
4. An additional rule about drinks – given how much bad press it has given, at some point, I must drink one (1) bottle of 5-hour Energy.
5. At some point, I will watch the film “We Are Wizards”, and give a review of it.
6. At some point, I will post a recording of myself lip-synching to the entire album Albatross: How We Failed to Save The Lone Star State with the Power of Rock and Roll.
7. After 72 hours have passed, I must merely make a post confirming that I am still awake, and then I may sleep. When I wake up, however, I must make a summatory post.
8. The majority of the posts must be text, but some video and pictures will be allowed as well, to supplement the experience.
9. I am not allowed to eat meat or meat by-products.
Next up, my personal history with insomnia!
ADDENDUM: I will get that history out to ya tomorrow. Also, I have a new rule!
10. Each day of my quest, I must do something to celebrate that day’s holiday (every day is some sort of holiday), as well as something to celebrate that week, and that month. It’ll make since when we start.
