MJ

My housemate, MJ, is in the hospital right now until Sunday. The doctors are trying to find out what is wrong with her. They originally thought it was Mersa, but the tests came back negative. Last night Casey and Lisa took her to the hospital at UVA instead of the one in Harrisonburg. Apparently they are better and will do a better job of treating her. Please be praying for the doctors to know what is wrong and for them to give her effective treatments.

It all started with flea bites, which led to an infection on her feet. It has since spread and is now hurting her legs. It doesn't seem to be getting better right now, but we all have faith that it will. So please if you're reading this, please send one up for MJ.

We want her to get better so she can get back to riding her motorcycle.

We love you, MJ!!

do we as humans feel a need to be known so badly and is that the reason for blogs, twitter, facebook, etc.?

the other day i was walking to class and i thought "I love fall" and then I thought "I'm going to tweet that" and then stopped myself and thought "why?"

Why?

The Girls' House

Meet 6/8 of my house this year. MJ (sleeping on the floor), Lisa, Lauren, Casey, Jeanne, and Lydia. (Katie and I not pictured) I already love these girls.

Conan, Blow Up Elaine's Car!

We made this video but missed the deadline by TWO HOURS. We're laughing about it though. But still... it hurts just a little :)

I want to create.

I want to create. But I feel stunted sometimes.

Story Time

We were finishing up a team meeting in a parking lot of Ross. (Cory needed new shoes) This lady starts approaching us and I just think that it's another person asking about what Invisible Children is or that they knew about us already. Well, this woman FLIPS out saying how she saw us on Oprah. I started filming, but didn't get the good stuff. She said she recognized all of us (even though Cory and Mandy weren't even in Chicago when that happened). It was really comical. She was so interested in everything we told her, though. Here's a little bit of her reaction.

Birthdays

My birthday came at a perfect time this year. It was right after tour ended which meant I could be with all my friends and get a drink. A group of us went out to Fred's and got Margaritas and Mexican food.

We roll deep.

My team at Pete's.
