Last weekend, the moon was so big and bright that I woke the spouse (or tried to, at least) to see it. Really beautiful. Despite another recent 'lunar' post, I'm not much of a night sky watcher these days; we live so close to the city that we see only the general pink haze most evenings. But as I turned out lights to go upstairs and found I could still find my way perfectly without them, this big moon stopped me in my tracks. After giving up on getting the spouse to come see, a cat and I hung out for a little while, soaking up the moonlight.
In the morning, I read that the moon's orbit brought it closer than it has been in 15 years. That whole thing about "living in the moment" makes a little more sense now. Pretty awesome.
