Tsukiakari ga utsukushii...
As has become a bit of a tradition in the past week for me, on nights where I don't have to get up early in the morning and, thus, have no need of an alarm clock, I sleep over in the new house.
A few minutes ago, just past midnight, I unplugged my laptop and made the way over here. As soon as I got here, I was greeted by the always-beautiful view out my window, with the moonlight illuminating the world as the sun set, with what I'm guessing is Venus shining as a harbinger of the coming night sky...
And it just occurred to me: this is the first time in months that I've seen a sunset, the moon, or a star in the sky...and that was in Vegas.
I'd almost forgotten how beautiful they are, especially when you get out to an area like here where the ever-glow of city lights are a distant thing and nature's nocturnal beauty can truly be seen.
I think I may just stay up a little bit later than intended tonight.
