dancinghorseJust got in from checking out Comet NEAT, which is kind of a neat name for a comet. It's not really visible with the naked eye, even here where the sky is so clear, but with binoculars it's a nice fuzzy blob to the left of Sirius.
Another love of mine: sky events.
Capria has been enjoying all the attention and the lovely words. She got a ride tonight--ponied ze keed around Garigan's Gulch (which is a neat name for a neighborhood in the West)and enjoyed the warm, clear evening. The saguaro are in bud--will bloom soon--and the prickly pear are blooming and setting fruit. We're in the spring dry season, cactus-flower season, heading into the blast furnace of summer.
I'm rather pleased with the productivity of the day. Wrote actual daytime Pages. Of cuss tomorrow is errand day, so I won't get anything done, but c'est la guerre. One day of decent Pages is worth noting.
And now Iron Chef is doing Scorpion Fish Battle--oy! Poisonous fish. It's like a Croc Hunter outtake: "Crikey! Those fish are poisonous! If anybody gets stung, he'll need the ER!" Paging George Clooney, one would presume.
I am, after all, a Crossover Writer.
