still cloudy (Toronto)

Woke, suddenly. Visited the library and returned to bed. Then lay there, thinking. Staring at the ceiling.

What if it's clear? I should observe? It could be perfectly clear! If I observe now, I should charge up the netbook. Where are my glasses? What if this is the only clear night for the rest of the month? I could look at Saturn! That'd be cool. I haven't seen Saturn for a while. Should I go? Should I take a quick peek? Or Should I observe until sunrise? Wide awake. Argh!

Got up. Stumbled into the office. Found the netbook power brick. Wandered to the kitchen. Plugged in the netbook power brick. Found the glasses. Put on the boots. Went out on the deck. Looked straight up. Ah ha. Saturn! Pale yellow Saturn. Looked north. Clouds. No. No no no. No. Crawled under the warm covers. Passed out.
