Why be in this mundane world when the surreal world in my head is so much more inviting, exciting, and not as complex?

I don’t get it…

Tonight I went to grab my telescope to stargaze… and it’s not there. It’s not there. It’s gone. 10 years of being my eyes to the Universe, and it’s gone. I’m crying and laughing. Crying because 10 years ago it was all I wanted in this world as far as superficial things… I finally was able to get it after a very long time of wanting, and longing… and then the first time I saw Jupiter’s moons I almost passed out… and some stranger grabbed my telescope- WHEN!?!?!? I used it last night!!!! WHO?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

I dug out my old telescope (an old broken telescope to begin with… would have loved to use it, but at the time I couldn’t figure out how to reattach the eye piece without creating vapors that would possibly damage the lens/mirrors.)

Sooo someone went to the one little entrance to my backyard in the dark and singled me out and took my tiny little telescope that was under my lounge chair…

Lesson learned :( ARGH!!!!! I hope they look at the sun directly through it.. the people who stole it… not their friends or relatives.

This weekend I’ll go through all my boxes in hope of finding the little missing eye piece and hopefully the wisdom to reattach it without ruining it. GRRR that is SO RUDE! Buy your own freaking telescope!

… okay, Jonathon woke up to my ‘grr’ and has advised me to ‘Be the Buddha’ as he’s going back to sleep to find the person who took it lol. Awww

Seriously, last night was the first night I broke it out and actually took the time to star gaze… the first time in years.

I will be the Buddha. There was a time over a decade ago when I had no clue what the planets looks like through a telescope… I still lived, if that’s what you called ‘living’.

Current Mood:UPSET!!! emoticon UPSET!!!

    Galileo’s life went downhill literally from the point where he discovered the first of Jupiter’s moons, so you might take some kind of karmic komfort in the fact that the universe is trying to save you from that.

    Oh but it was too late- I saw those moons many moons ago. The Universe was trying to mess with me. I found it though! And feeling a little silly I got so upset!

    I thought you would. But I didn’t want to say so whilst you were upset about it. :)
