There is a lunar eclipse tonight! I stepped outside to look at it just now, and in the thirty seconds that I stood there watching the moon glow faintly orange and pink my hair froze into icy little Medusa locks (because I had run directly from the shower into the bitter cold to watch the eclipse!) It is cold these days. But you’re from Wisconsin, right? You knew that, right?
Are you from Wisconsin? I always assume that most people who read this are, but then I look at my stat counters and I become terribly confused (can you tell I am the kind of person who is confused by stat counters?) According to the stats I average about 80 hits per day, with visits from over 30 countries and countless US cities. This makes me a little bit skeptical. All of my previous blogs raked in about 6 or 8 hits a day, mostly from friends whom I begged to read my blog. I feel like I’m in the middle of some kind of digital hidden camera joke, maybe. Like, “Watch this girl’s face as she sees her numbers sky rocket! She been p4wned!” According to my stats, most of my traffic goes to a single post that I wrote a few months back, and if you’re curious it is this one. Some how I must have gotten locked into the Andy Gold$worthy circuit. That’s cool, I still like him, and I only misspelled his name just now so that I wouldn’t mislead the search engines to thinking this post had anything to do with him. And okay, yes, he’s the money. He’s so money and he doesn’t even know it.
Mostly I’m just nervous for my dental appointment in the morning. I’m having my tooth prepared for a crown. And by “prepared” I mean numbed and then sawed down to a little peg. Youch!

ahhh good old horrible nightmare inducing songs…
I got to see it too (but it looked redder than pink in this part of the world) and I had the idea it was only pollution and gases (I learned they could create such an effect on Dawsons Creek and that Bruce Willis movie with that kid… or isn’t it titled The Kid?), until i found a newspaper someone left at the toilet at work today which mentioned it as an eclipse… hooray for science and journalism!
