Did anyone go outside tonight and just look at the sky?
Even with the street lights, the stars were clear and sparkling.
I didn't see the moon.
I walked out into the street to find it.
It wasn't there.
So I went in and asked my scientific expert.
He said "look east."
I did. It wasn't there.
He said "It hasn't risen yet."
I asked "When will it rise?"
He said "I don't know."
He looked it up.
He said "The moon will rise a little after eight."
At eight i looked. No moon.
I looked at 8:10. No moon.
I looked at 8:30. Same thing.
And then Pete looked out the bathroom window.
He saw the moon.
I started to walk outside.
Pete said "You won't see it though the trees."
I went out anyway.
And, walked to the end of the street.
There I saw the nearly full moon between two houses.
I stayed for a while and looked.
I felt better.
Silly, I guess.
