the moon

the moon was so bright last night, i'm sure it was just for me.

it wasn't a full moon, it wasn't a sliver - it was a little bigger than half-full.  nothing fancy - just the moon in the midst of its waxing or waning - i'm not sure which.  but the sky was so clear.  i could see the moon clearly, and stars.  in atlanta - a city with many competing lights.

and today was gray, we'll have snow in the morning, the city will shut down cautiously for a couple of days.

and yesterday was clear and bright and warm.  it was for my 30th birthday.  it was just for me.  in the middle of february of 2014.  what a gift.
