Today was a long but awesome day! I woke up around 3am and couldn't
go back to sleep so I just stayed up and waited or the Lunar Eclipse /
Blood Moon live stream to start on Ustream. The first half of the lunar
eclipse was a mixture of me listening to the people talk about
astronomy, wathing the moon change, and dozing off from time to time.
Thankfully I never fully fell asleep.
Right before the moon fully
eclipsed I decided to go upstairs and watch it with my ow eyes because I
could hear people up there anyway. I grabbed my phone and my monocular
and went upstairs. the live stream was still playing on my phone. I let
Kayla and dad watch the live stream on my phone and we watched the moon
with our own eyes as well through our large back window. Through my
monocular the moon looked amazing! I've never actually watched a lunar
eclipse so I didn't know what to expect when it eclipsed. I loved every
minute and the reddish hue the moon got when it eclipsed was amazing. I
think I'll look at the moon through my monocular more often from now on
because I had a really great view! Anyway, after the shadow on the moon
started to dissipate I went back downstairs and eventually fell asleep.
Today
was the start of general conference and I had set an alarm, but
accidentally turned it off and missed the first session of General
Conference. I was disappointed, but decided to go and get lunch from
Dairy Queen instead of sulking. I got my stuff ready and headed out. I
got a bacon cheeseburger $5 lunch that comes with fries, a drink and a
sundae or blizzard. If you get the blizzard you have to pay one extra
dollar but it is worth it. After I got my lunch I headed back home and
ate.
When conference came around I got on Twitter and started
using my special LDS oriented account. I tweeted about conference while I
was watching. I loved all of the talks and recommend you listen instead
of me saying what they talked about. I wouldn't even know where to
start anyway.
After conference I went for a walk and then took a
short nap. The day so far had been super super good, but things got even
better. Luck was on my side today and when I went upstairs after
watching some car crash videos on youtube mom told me to go and tell
Dylan that I could give him tickets to conference! I was sooo happy! I
texted Dylan and after priesthood meeting he texted me back really happy
and asked if he or Darik could come pick them up around 10:30pm. I said
yes and because I was a total mess I went and got cleaned up and picked
out some of my cutest clothes. If I'm not at the gym I always like to
look my best around Darik and Dylan. After this I watched more videos
and did some stargazing with Star walk on my phone. I also got to talk
to Dylan a bit and he told me Darik was coming instead of him. I guess
he was busy with friends or something, I didn't mind at all though.
Darik is my favorite person in the world, so I was suuuuper happy.
Around 11pm he showed up and got the tickets. Panda got out and was
running around the yard and acting all hyper, but they got along. I
loved seeing him so much and am glad we got to talk a little too. I've
been really happy ever since. Anyway, so that is my day. Today was just
too awesome and full of good things. My good fortune was at it's peak today!
To end here is an awesome Cyanide and Happiness comic that I like.
