Space Nerds Unite



I absolutely love space. And tonight is the Perseids Meteor Shower. The Perseids is one of the best meteor showers to observe, producing up to 60 meteors per hour at their peak. This year's shower should peak on the night of August 12 and the morning of the 13th, but you may be able to see some meteors any time from July 23 - August 22. The radiant point for this shower will be in the constellation Perseus. The thin, crescent moon will be out of the way early, setting the stage for a potentially spectacular show. For best viewing, look to the northeast after midnight

thoughts on divorce

I remember when, I would sit up on my bed crying out for my heroes to save me from the Boogie Man. You would both come rushing in and fight the monster away from my mind. I felt safe. This house felt like a home. Now years have gone by, and this monster has returned. I cry out for my heroes, yet nobody has come through those doors. Who is going to save me? No matter how much I scream and shout, my heroes are never to be found. They went their separate ways. They saw each other as the enemy and pushed each other away. Fighting crime for twenty years, side by side never leaving each others side. These superheroes could fight off any monster that haunted my dreams. Except these monsters have become real, and i need my heroes now more than ever. Where are they? Where did they go? I feel so lost, and this monster is getting closer. HELP! HELP! HELP!…..still no reply. This monster is torturing me, i need my heroes help!







I guess they aren’t coming to save me, now its time to let this monster take me.
