I took the dog out, and she immediately tried to yank me off my feet. And then did it a couple more times. It took me a minute to figure out what the hell she wanted - she was trying to catch fireflies. After I realized that, it was kind of hard to be annoyed with her.

It is gorgeous outside. It's warm and just a little breezy, and the moon is huge and bright and gold, and there are fireflies everywhere. And there are stars. Not as many as there would be if it were a clearer night, but still. Stars. I'm a child of southern California, and before I moved here, I was unaware that the Milky Way was a thing you could actually see. It was a myth. Like snow.

I hate this house with a burning passion. I am so glad to be leaving. But I love Fairyland, and I desperately hope our next place has trees full of fireflies and it's dark enough to see the stars.
