You’re Invited to My Online New Year’s Eve Party; Twilight Zone Marathon

It dawns on me that a lot of readers like myself cannot attend the usual New Year’s Eve festivities many of our friends and families attend.  Some of us have chronic fatigue and pain.  Some of us are bedridden and/or have bedtimes to maintain.  Thankfully Scyfy is hosting a Twilight Zone (TZ) marathon beginning New Year’s Eve, Tuesday and lasting until January 2nd, Thursday.   Join me. 

You can watch the marathon with me and other readers (I already know of a few guests attending–people with Fibromyalgia, Muscular Dystrophy, Lupus, and Bipolar Disorder.)  I’d love for you to join us on Facebook where I’ll be posting updates and my thoughts on episodes.  Here is my Facebook invitation. Click and RSVP.  Also feel free to invite friends (both healthy and sick) to the party.  During the party, you can post your thoughts on the Facebook invitation.

Maintaining Bedtimes, Schedule 

Because of my physical limitations caused by Myasthenia Gravis (neuromuscular autoimmune disease) and bedtime for Bipolar Disorder, a virtual party is something I look forward to.  (Keeping a consistent bedtime helps me avoid bipolar mood swings.)  I also think it’s a great way for people with chronic illness to find community.  Last Year’s NYE TZ marathon was watched by 1.1 million viewers.  The Twilight Zone is one of my all-time favorite TV shows and one of the most intelligent shows ever written.  Click here for a detailed schedule form the ScyFy marathon.  Each episode is a half-hour long.

Start time:  Tuesday, December 31, 2013 at 8 am EST/7 am CST

End Time:    Thursday, January 2, 2014  at 5 am EST/4 am CST
