I'm on a roll man, 3 nights of staying up for that beautiful planet in the sky!

Can y'all imagine the view of Venus, Earth and the Moon from Mercury? That would be so bright. This is because from there you would see the full planets since they are outside from it in orbit. It would like a yellow, blue& white balls of gleaming fire.

Why haven't I invested in a good amateur telescope as much as I sit and stargaze at night? Stupid Tanner.

Technically, the view from Mercury would be terrible. The atmosphere is 1) lethal and 2) has way too many clouds of deadly gases to make the stars and planets visible. >.>

Just saying.

Mercury, like our Moon, has no atmosphere to speak of. You're thinking of Venus. The view of the outer Solar System from Mercury's dark side would be spectacular, but it's like the second coldest place in the SS, so bundle up!

Ah, you're right. Though also, Mercury does get rather hot during the day iirc. OK, just Wiki'd and yes, it can reach 400+C at the equator during the day. So you're either freezing to death or melting. Yay. XD

Why do I feel like we should celebrate you getting to the end of any day where you don't injure yourself?

I'm not sure if it's a hat, or if the scarf is just wrapped around his head really awkwardly, b/c they appear to be the same material.

If it is a hat, then probably not. I'm not a hat person, except in the winter.

Insanely busy weekend. Not having much sleep, being quite active, and drinking moderately.

I went to bed last night, and realized that I could not recall a single thing about work. Usually, as my weekend is winding down and I'm getting ready to start new work week, my mind starts recalling what I've had on the go, and I start roughly outlining what I have to get done tomorrow and so on. But yesterday, I was shocked and pleasantly surprised by feeling a complete blank.

I guess that means objectively, I had a really amazing weekend if it took my mind off like so wholly.

Half my team decided not to show up to our 9PM game tonight.

Despite the fact that we barely scrapped together 11 (so we had no subs and had to run non-stop in the sweltering heat and bugs for the whole 90 min), we pulled off a 1:1 draw.

I'm feeling exhausted but happy.
