Wonder what would have happened if the full moon had exactly cooincided with the vernal equinox.
Noddy, you may tell Mr. Noddy that I can relate completely. The best thing about the rehab hospital is that bed with all the electric controls. Sometimes (only sometimes), you can actually find a position that doesn't hurt.
Roger--
Would that Mr. Noddy hurt a bit more. Yesterday he bent down and pried open the trapdoor to the storage space under the house. Then he tried to convince his Home Health Aid to fish out my three-wheeled walker which is a dainty little number designed for balance, not bearing the weight of a 230 pound man with a fractured pelvis.
The Home Health Aid refused--and fled.
Will you be howling with us?
No, but maybe I can come up with a heartfelt groan.
Roger--
Groans are perfectly acceptable--groans in moonlight can even have a tinge of romance under certain circumstances.
I'm about to go out for my official Coyote Woman Howl.
I was out for a walk with the pack earlier - decided it was just a tiny bit too public for howling - especially when we were romping behind the ambulance station.
Saturday night? It looks full now...
From my vantage point there is a cloud, almost looks like an airplane trail but it isn't, that appears like an angels halo with the moon as the angels head. It is perfectly alined.
I'm howling early.
Howling for getting called in on days off, the Katie and Martha's of the world, oh, and Mom's in need of a night out.
Have to throw in a howl of thanks for the Mom's that helped stuff 2000 eggs last night, too.
Fuller tomorrow? looks ripe right now
This is a most auspicious moon. When I went to bed last night, I could see the moon through the bedroom window--without my glasses.
I'll be howling against Implacable Fate and the General and Particular Cussedness of Humanity.
I'm also going to give a loud wail in honor of all the women of the world who move through life picking up the pieces.
EhBeth--
If you really wanted to howl behind the ambulance building, you'd let out a mighty roar. You were just saving your voice for moonrise tonight.
Squinney--
I hear you. Is "Den Mother" in your job description? What about "Snake Herder?"
A rare occurrence. I saw a setting moon and was captured by its beauty.
I didn't howl, I simply watched.
Letty--
One of these nights you're going to forget about preserving your singing voice. You'll let loose and howl just for the joy of being alive and I'll hear you in the Poconos.
I don't know about you guys, but I'm ready for a good howl :-D
Be nice if it could stop snowing and clear up by tonight so I can actually see the moon.
OUUUWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!
ooooooooooooooooooooooouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuw
on it's way...
how interesting
I just changed the notice on my facebook page to mention The Howl - and got a notice from one of my friends there - who had just posted an audio clip of coyotes howling out at her daughter's place (literally minutes earlier)
I've got to put on hat and mittens, and get out there and howl.
You go girl!!! :-D
Ouuuuuuwwwwwwwwwwwwwww!!!!!
In my latitudes the bright moon last night made for a very stark, simplified landscape.
May "simplified" be an omen.
Ummm soryy ladies could you hold it down to a dull roar. I've got some thinkin' to do.
So, what are you thinking?
(I KNOW you didn't just enter a room full of women and not expect THAT question!)
Managed a couple of restrained howls (we had company) but my son's GF's dachshund was impressed!
