Oh tommyrot, thank you so much for that link! I did see it, easily with the telescope, and once I'd done that, I could find it with the naked eye too. I'm trying to upload my pictures right now to see if I got anything. Odds are it's just Venus, but I did also get a few pics of Jupiter and its moons. Poor quality, of course, but still. We'll see what I got.

My parent (the assholes!!) just dangled a tour withthe Great Barrier Reef. OH HELLS YES. If that, I'm signing up for dive lessons this summer. Because no way I am going to that and not going deep. Unless my depth issues freak me out.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

ita,
I think Culkin must be on drugs. I mean he looks REALLY bad. I hope he gets/seeks some help.

Okay, these are both blurry, but you can barely see Uranus. I KNOW DON'T MAKE THE JOKES OVER THERE OK? Venus. And here's Jupiter and you can just barely see the moons. Both out of focus because this is my first session with the telescope and my Droid 3. But I think I can get the hang of it if I work at it.
Also, the elk on my street this evening.

Wow. Macaulay Culkin doesn't look strong.
Yikes. He looks like shit on a stick.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I can't see Uranus, Liese! (tee hee)
I wouldn't put it past Culkin to just be anorexic or something.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I took a look at the southwest corner of the sky and Venus and Jupiter were all blurry through the cloud cover. Oh well.
No elk, either. Which is good, they're supposed to stay on the other side of the slough from here. I did see wee baby lambs amongst the sheep when I was driving to and from the grocery store though, which is always cheery.
