This is a very pretty planet, and one of the pretty things is the view out.

I've been spending a lot of my lunch hours walking around, looking at green and red and yellow and orange leaves, and late purple flowers, under bright blue skies. (It's been a good week for that, and while the neighborhood my job is in isn't remotely exciting, it's got lots of trees and flowers and such--suburbia old enough to have sidewalks, and mature trees.)

Last night I stayed up late enough to watch the eclipse. This wasn't too much of a stretch: totality was at 10:22 EDT, and my nominal worknight bedtime is 10:15. And my bedroom and living room windows face southeast, so I was able to get undressed and otherwise ready for bed while watching the eclipse (except for toothbrushing). I watched the shadow finish covering the Moon, then we turned the light out and took a look at the eclipsed Moon by Earthlight. And then I lay down on my pillow and closed my eyes.

As a bonus, when I left the house this morning a little before sunrise, the full Moon was shining bright and clear over the hills of Inwood Hill Park.
