Seven days

and counting. I'm going to read in bed until my eyes won't stay open. Shouldn't be too long, actually. The stress does not make for a long attention span. Tomorrow I will be doing laundry, which means just me and a book for an hour or so, which is good. And I went to the grocery today, so I have plenty of brain food to last me through the weekend. Will I be able to resist my party instinct? Probably not all weekend, but all work and no play wouldn't be good for the stress level either.

Did everyone see the total lunar eclipse tonight? Luckily, it was clear here in New York City (it was supposed to have snowed), so we all got to see it - well, those of us that wanted to. I am in awe of something that can make so many people stare up at the sky in wonder. We all turn to children in a good way. Incidentally, the yellowish spot to the left of the darkened moon was Saturn, and the bluish one to the left was the star Regulus in the constellation Leo. Gotta love it.
