Catch a Falling Star....

I didn't catch a falling star. I didn't even see a falling star.

I was so excited for the Leonids tonight. It has been years since I saw a meteor shower, and I just knew it would be awesome. But was it awesome? No. It was not awesome. And I'll tell you why.

Amanda and I bundled ourselves up and walked out to the darkest corner of campus to wait for the falling star action. We set ourselves down on the ground and turned our little heads to the sky.

Nothing.

Zip.

Nada.

Just two frozen kids in the dark for 45 minutes.

Pickles.
