It cuts be off halfway through. I'll make another one later when I'm not as dead.

.:Of course it's complex. It's a fricken war:.
One body guard captured
One top comander killed
Both in one week
This is amazing news, but it has brought up a massive can of worms in my mind.
"if they caught his body guard, how did they not catch him?"
"what if the Ugandan government is just holding out and is actually capable of capturing Kony?"
These are questions that I have predicted people at our screenings will ask. To be honest, I had no idea how to answer them. The more I dwelled on it, the more overwhelmed I got. There are so many variables to this. It's so complex. But of course it is, it's a WAR we're talking about. Today I began to get increasingly stressed about the task at hand.
OBAMA
Are we out of our minds?! Our government is too worried about health care to care about the longest running war in Africa. The end to this war is not a simple 1,2,3. There are so many variables and a dangerously complex webbing.
And then I remembered.
I remembered what drew me to Invisible Children. I was 14 when I saw Bobby, Jason, and Laren on Oprah for the first time. The story they told pulled at my heartstrings. but the punk kid inside me kept saying,
"our government is too corrupt to do anything. We can't do anything"
But IC proved me wrong. GNC took place and I saw with my own eyes something so outrageous.
We had a voice
I realized that America is not made up by our government but by the individuals who take a stand for what they believe in. The ones who use their voice to make a difference. They are out there, we are out there.
This is going to be hard. We're trying to end a freakin war. There was a fire started in me today, a fire that I KNOW is within each and every one of us. Now is the time to be awakened, now is the time to stand up for what we believe in. While the task at hand is so large that it is almost too hard to grasp, we not only can, but will see and end to this war.

ugggghh Kintera!!!!
First screening went down tonight.
It went fairly well, especially for our first time.
Definitely things to improve on, but at least we didn't die!

.:We need to Rescue and Recover that chip:.
New England, East Coast, Great Lakes, Midwest, and Northern Exposure drove for 24 hours straight. Ok technically it wasn't straight because everyone but NorEX pulled off to the side of the road for a 2 hour power nap.
Right before our nap we saw a, get this, Chupacabra. Make fun of us all you want but we know what we saw, no doubt.
We got back on the road at 8am and this was the glorious sight;
Now we're in Denver, Colorado and about to fall asleep.
Oh, and here's a family portrait for y'all

.:Do beavers bite:.
There's a lot I KNOW I need to catch up on.
But it's 11:36pm
I haven't showered in 3 days
I need to do laundry
I've obtained 4 hours of sleep since wednesday
My contacts are foggy
I saw the Working Title tonight
We launch in 5 days
Adam got me addicted to Blackpool Lights
