The Scattered Thoughts of Me

I'm sitting here goofing off at the computer, and I look out the window into the darkness, and I notice a bright light... it's the moon... the moon! I haven't seen the moon in a long time. It's been raining every night for the last couple of weeks, which means it's been cloudy during the nighttime. I noticed the moon out the window, so I went out and looked up and saw the moon and two stars. I guess, considering the glare from the millions of city lights and the way the smog has been so thick for the last month, the moon and two stars isn't bad. I could actually almost see the outlines of the tall buildings in Santa Fe this afternoon... almost. That's about as clear as it has been in June. The moon and two stars isn't much, considering what a clear night back home looks like, but it is nice to be able to walk out into the cool night air and look up and see something other than orange-glowing clouds.
