So, right now, a couple things are happening. It's the winter solstice. There's a full moon, and there's a complete lunar eclipse going on outside. The moon is right out there, on a clear night I can see it from my back porch.

But there is also, tonight, for the first night in a week, an impenetrable barrier of clouds between my porch and that eclipse.

I feel like this does a good job acting as representative of my entire life.
