Every once in a while, I'll look up and see the moon, and it will strike me: That's a freaking planet! I mean, it's huge, and there it is, hanging in the sky! It's something like 235,000 miles away, and yet I can still see it.
Damn.
And yes, I said planet. Technically, the moon does not orbit the Earth, but rather the Moon and the Earth orbit a common point, which just happens to be located inside our planet. Argue if you want, but I can get away with calling it such.
