The Life and Times of S

How I wonder where you are?

So I was driving back from a BBQ at my good friend from work B.'s house last night when I saw the clear, crescent moon so low and so big in the night sky, I felt like I could reach out and touch it. So I parked the car behind the airport, this open area where you can almost see the horizon on a crystal, clear morning, which happens to be on my way home, and which happens to be pitch dark at night, except for the occasional plane landing.

I looked up at the sky and millions of stars twinkled at me. Did I ever tell you how much I love looking at the stars? Did I also tell you that I wanted to be an astronaut? I still do.

Anyway, I stood there for about a half hour. Gazing. Thinking. There wasn't a soul in sight. It was awesome.

I didn't see a shooting star this time though. No matter.
