This was Weird...

[Faux pas]

I live in Gray's Harbor County, it's rainy and cloudy most of the time (the Norwegian in me loves that) so we probably see the moon maybe 4 times a year. I was heading out at 7am to go for my second Pfizer fix, the sky was clear and the moon was out! At least I think it was the moon. It didn't look like the same old man-in-the-moon face moon I've seen my whole life. It had no face just a bunch of random shadows, wtf? That was not the strangest thing about it tho, the strangest thing was it wasn't round, it was OVAL Anybody else here seen anything like this before?

Cuing the twilight zone theme now...

1. It's called the "Droop Moon" ...

Blame it on Atmospheric optics - Wikipedia
[Search domain en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atmospheric_optics] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atmospheric_optics
Atmospheric optics is "the study of the optical characteristics of the atmosphere or products of atmospheric processes .... [including] temporal and spatial resolutions beyond those discernible with the naked eye". Meteorological optics is "that part of atmospheric optics concerned with the study of patterns observable with the naked eye". Nevertheless, the two terms are sometimes used ...


Droop Moon is a joke.

I haven't hallucinated since they had me on codeine after a surgery.
