state of moon

did you see the moon smile tonight?
i did.
it was a faint smile behind the clouds, but it was clear enough to see if you knew where to look. as it smiled down on the night, i almost half-expected it to say something to me, some kind of answer or some kind of question. but as i looked at it more and stretched my ears, the smile faded behind the clouds and the seriousness of storm and night came over.
i've decided to visit the moon someday. it doesn't seem like it is too difficult of a destination, and if you ask me, it's perfectly safe. the chances of aliens waiting there to adult-nap me are very slim. i'll bring along some water crackers to have with the cheese that i expect to find... maybe those crackers will please the aliens if they are there... foreign foods are always a hit... and i think earth is rather foreign to those aliens.
do you think the moon has cancellation stamps?
i might bring my tennis gear with me... and i'll make sure to buy clay court shoes before i go. i wonder if the ball is as slow there as it is at the french open... i bet nadal would be undefeated on moon surface as well.
i'd need a space trip buddy... just like any road trip, a space trip should not be taken alone. we'll be sure to take tours, maybe rod and his staff will guide us. i'm sure it'll be a blast, crawling in craters and all.

any takers.

peace
