Holy Shit

There is nothing quite like getting into work to find an email alert from Facebook with "Sidekick is in the hospital. My number is #######. Call immediately."

And then you realize you've forgotten your phone at home. Thank god work has a badass long distance plan. He's ok, apparently, but had to ride in the ambulance and all that. Nearly gave me a heart attack, christ.

Going to give him a call at lunch. Man, the wonders of technology.

Will update later with fun stuff, I'm just... recovering from the doom.

Since apparently my f-list is full of astonomy nuts, judging by the poll

Well, this isn't a "Let's Learn About!" post yet, because I'm still working on that between the thing I'm writing for work (cause yeah, I work). But since everyone loves astronomy or something, here's some stuff.

+ Herschel and Planck brought to you by science

+ The Farmer's Almanac Astronomy Center I've been getting the print copy of Farmer's Almanac for years, like since I was a kid. They're actually a really good source of current planetary and star activity. And now they're online!

Also. I took the Star Trek Meme.

( technically I could be any of the top three )
