I received a Prayer Rug in the mail today. I didn't ask for it; someone sent it me. It's not really a rug. It's a large piece of paper that has been folded up. It has the design of a Persian rug, but then there's a large picture of Jesus in the middle of it. Jesus' eyes are drawn to be closed, but the directions with the rug say that if you look at them long enough they appear to open up. Then you are too kneel on the Prayer Rug (Prayer Sheet of Paper) and ask for what you need. You then write your prayer on the letter that came with the "rug" and send it to another person.
It's a little strange. The weirdest part is that I'm not sure who sent it to me. And I'm suspicious, but I can't find anywhere that I'm to send money. Currently the Prayer Rug is in my garbage. I feel a little strange about that, but I really don't want to hold onto it.
In other news, Tyler commented on the blog. He didn't say much, but it sure is nice to hear from him. I've been writing to him each week since he was sent to Iraq, but I have no idea when (or if) the letters reach him. I wonder if he got the porn I sent him. Maybe the censors "censored" it for themselves. Just kidding, Tyler. There's no porn coming your way from me. But, Adina - she might send you some.
Three paragraphs is all it took for me to get from "Prayer Rug" to "Pornography".

Donny, sorry mistaken identity! I hope Tyler is doing well too! --Other Tyler Roommate of Bow Long Lost.
You and Ms. Anon are great, but please don't send me porn (its dirtier and less academic if you abbreviate it) . I know where to get it if I need it.
Whoa, Tyler. That's how unexpected it is for you to comment on my blog. I thought it more likely to receive comments from Baghdad.
I was looking at your pictures on Facebook the other day. You've had some nice trips recently, eh?
