10:58 PM: when planets pretend to be stars
[#]

the first night with stars in almost a month! walking home from michael's i saw a huge bright star i didn't recognize and tried to look it up in the star book. i thought i might be spica but it seemed too bright even for that, and when we looked at it w/ binoculars, sven & i saw a planet w/ four moons ringed around it! we have no idea what planet it is, but it was amazing and beautiful, anyway. i can reliably locate leo, now, and i just identified leo minor tonight. still can't see cancer, even though i know it's between gemini & leo.
