BP MS150 (aka- The 150 mile bike ride over 2 days from Houston to Austin to raise money and awareness for the MS society and those living with multiple sclerosis)

Join me!
Ride.
Volunteer.
Spread the word.

I ride to sponsor teens so that they can attend Adventure Camp.
I ride to support the MS Society as they provide many services for those with MS.
I ride because I can.

Please do what you can to help me in my efforts. MS sucks. But by fundraising we are making a difference in the lives of those with MS.

Make my day, sponsor me to ride one of the 150 miles from Houston to Austin. For only $10 you get a mile in your honor (I'll send you a picture from the ride and name the mile for you.)
Just 33 days to go. 
I need your help.

Thank you!

Why I like working nights.... and shameless plug for the MS 150!

1. It is quiet.
2. I get to work on my own schedule.
3. Minimal BS. Skeleton crew and tired staff meaning people work more efficiently in hopes of getting a chance to nap/rest. But there is plenty of time to hang out too!
4. There is time to hold a baby, or 3 babies like I did last night.
5. There is time to talk to a patient's parents for as long as they want and answer as many questions as they want.
6. It is quiet and calm and you have an autonomy that doesn't exist during the day...
7. You get to backwards commute and parking is never an issue.
8. Breakfast with the hubby.
9. Daytime dog walks and trips to the dog park.
10. You get time off during the day to normal people things like shop or go to the post-office.

That's my short list. I'm just finishing a month of wards and then I go to clinic for the month. Life is good. Intern year in more than half way over and all is well over here.

Donate now and sponsor me to ride one or two of the 166 miles from here to Austin on April 12th and 13th.

Only 72 days until the MS 150! And sponsors that donate by the end of the month will have a chance to win a $25 Starbucks card, so what are you waiting on?!?
