Donate. Or else!



That's right, 150 miles for MS!

Dear Friends and Family,

The National MS Society is kicking off our annual Bike MS Ride. I am planning to be a part of that event and I am asking you to join me in the fight against MS by making a contribution to support my effort.

The National Multiple Sclerosis Society is dedicated to ending the devastating effects of MS. They simultaneously fund research for a cure while also helping people who currently live with MS lead more fulfilling lives. I believe in the work they do, and I invite you to see for yourself all the good they've done for the MS community. More than 400,000 Americans live with MS, and your support can and will make changes in their lives.

Please help by making a DONATION, large or small - to fight MS, or, why not join me on the day of the event? Become a participant and side by side, as teammates, we can work together to raise the funds to make a difference.

Whatever you can give will help! I greatly appreciate your support and will keep you posted on my progress.

Sincerely,
Shannon

Quarters.

Tomorrow is that big day! Take shelter because my (and twin's) birthday is full of bad luck. Buy me stuff, like dresses and vintage guitars.

Characteristics of quarter-life crisis may include (or THINGS TO LOOK FORWARD TO):

* feeling "not good enough" because one can't find a job that is at one's academic/intellectual level
* frustration with relationships, the working world, and finding a suitable job or career
* confusion of identity
* insecurity regarding the near future
* insecurity concerning long-term plans, life goals
* insecurity regarding present accomplishments
* re-evaluation of close interpersonal relationships
* disappointment with one's job
* nostalgia for university, college, high school or elementary school life
* tendency to hold stronger opinions
* boredom with social interactions
* loss of closeness to high school and college friends
* financially-rooted stress (overwhelming college loans, unanticipatedly high cost of living, etc.)
* loneliness
* desire to have children
* a sense that everyone is, somehow, doing better than you

Bang.



The Large Hadron Collider is getting switched on a 2 am central time tonight. If we all get sucked into a Black Hole I just wanted to say this one last time in case. I love you.

Phew!

New Orleans is safe! Mom and I are running on day 5 of Cullman, Alabama. Mike and Monica left at 4 am today to check out everything. There is no power, but thankfully no damage. Huzzah!

Ray Nagin isn't so much a politician as he is a "personality". That useless sack of crap should get on Hollywood Squares already.

We return early tomorrow morning. In the meantime - Star Wars and Space Ice Cream from NASA in Huntsville.
