Celebrating Mars

Last night (Or was it the night before?), we walked out into the street and gazed at Mars together. We didn't stand there long. It was hot and muggy, and we were both very tired. Still we were out there for a while.

Tonite, as it comes close to its nearest approach, I saw it again as I turned the corner walking the dog. But when I got home, I didn't take her by the hand or pull her outside.

Instead, tonite, as Mars comes near to its closest approach, we sat inside and ate fried chicken and had watermelon for desert. You might say it was a celebration, I guess.
