I forgot to talk about Mars and the moon. Well I think it was Mars. I was coming home from work the other day and all these people are looking at the moon, which seemed kinda silly. I mean it was full (or alsmost full) but what's the big deal. People were taking pictures. Then I realized that there was an airplane that appeared to be just underneath it... only it wasn't moving. Aha! A very bright star is beside the moon. One of my colleagues later told me it was Mars. And I didn't whip out my camera. Man. And it has been overcast the last few days, so I haven't had a second chance. Oh well. It was pretty cool though. Knowing nothing about astronomy, I have no idea if North Americans got the same view or not.

And, whatdya think about my weather girl? I think she's great, although the platform shoes she wears in the evening are a bit strange. Might change her to the kimono weather girl, but this one has more outfits. That means she's more fun to look at... and I have a feeling most of you can't tell the difference between the different kimonos. All I know was that today was way too bloody hot for September. Give me fall!! I want to bypass summer all together. That's what vacation is for!
