Eclipsing
Tonight I saw the beginnings of the lunar eclipse. :) I had hoped to get back outside to see it later along, but as is the norm for me, schoolwork kept me busy way too late. As a result the Moon passed into the shadow of Mother Earth without me there as witness.
And despite my best efforts my schoolwork remains unfinished. I can't escape the real sense that I may be academically doomed this semester. Dropping this class would make my life much easier, but the repercussions of that would be too huge. My assistantship, tuition waiver, and income would all vanish. I still have 3 days (technically) to pull a whole lot of homework out of my you know what. Three reports past due. I suck. I could really use some time hiding in the shadow of the earth right now. Yeah yeah, I know. I'm doing that right now. (It's night here... Shadow of the earth... eclipse... Work with me, people!)
See you on the sunny side. ;)
