Last night was kind of strange.


I was in my room and I was watching the television, out of the corner of my eye I see my curtains moving in a breeze, I became restless and wanted to be outside, I can't completely explain it, it was almost like the night was calling me.

I looked at my cable box to see the time and it was 11:46pm. I told my mom I was going out for a bit and left the house, I walked outside and the night seemed still and slightly muggy, no hint of the breeze that lost itself in my room.

After a moment of silent appreciation for the night I began walking down the stairs of my stoop to my car as I got closer to my car I looked up into the sky to see what seemed to be an almost full moon, I hadn't seen it before because it was hidden behind some trees, but it's beauty was haunting. The clouds cast over it slightly giving it a slightly blurry and shimmery appearance but you could see it clearly. I almost didn't want to move but I did. I decided to go and visit my friend Jesse at work,

We talked and hung out for a little while and we parted for the night. I looked at my cell phone when I got outside and it was 12:20 AM, I went and got gas for my car and then I went home, all the time thinking of how beautiful the night was.

I drove home and parked my car, As I walked to my front door I stopped turned and face the moon and spoke out loud "Thank you for sharing you beauty with me". I opened the door with my keys and trying not to make a lot of noise, I let my mother know that I was back home. I put down my purse and took of my jacket, and walked to the kitchen, I made myself a glass of chocolate milk and went to bed.

The whole night seemed so magical, like anything could happen, I love nights like that. The moon called and I answered. Right now I am in sort of a fuzzy mood, like I don't have a care in the world.
