Lunar Eclipse! Get 'em while they're hot!

....it's the last one until 2010!!

I love these things. I love the full moon. Miss writing my sci-fi epic's scenes of the heroine seeing it for the first time. *nostalgizes while geeking*

I have been planning all day to wrap up and watch. Stepped outside at 10:02 - ankle deep in snow. When did that happen? The sky is all clouded over, darn it! Same thing happened to me with the solar eclipse in England a few years ago. And here I am, former astronomy student!

Owww. That makes me sad. It's screened by all the tall trees in my yard but they are leafless, so it's all moody and weird and red-ombre-y...and dark. ::sends you lots of imagery::

I was fairly sad. But your reply, together with the mood, has given me a little bunnylet for my fic o' doom, so at least that came out of it! I can feel the cracks starting in my block, I need as many wedges as possible!

I need as many wedges as possible!

::hands you an iron log-crackin' wedge::

::a wedge of cheddar::

::wedge of brie::

::...a wedgewood teapot full of earl grey::

....uh. I'm so sorry. ::pets bunnylet and flees::

It was gorgeous, wasn't it? The moon turned a deep plum color and it lasted for over an hour.

BTW, love your Cameron icon :)

Hee! thanks. I got that from miggy ages ago while on a different LJ. Cameron=love.

Yeah, it was so pretty! Moodily lit through the Gothic leafless trees in the back yard. I'm glad the clouds moved on a bit.
