How often does a Blue Moon occur, anyway? That’s what I was wondering. Along with hoping the moon would actually be Blue, but, sadly, that’s not the case.

What the heck? Apparently, it’s too much to ask for a moon in color wheel shades.

Anyway, my peeps over at Wikipedia have informed me that a Blue Moon happens just once every two to three years, hence it being named “Blue Moon”, after “once in a blue moon”.

Get it? Good. ‘Cause I tend to be slow.

So on this Blue Moon evening, The BF and I are going to go see The Intouchables. Because, clearly, I can’t get enough France and French in my life.

And as for my animals? They’ll be living it up tonight. Hopped up on things like organic yogurts and drinking out of people glasses – what? Come on, like your cats don’t drink out of your glass?

I think I need to take some more cues from Benny. He really gets this living thing. And feeling worthy and deserving. He doesn’t question anything. He just goes for it.

My little orange furry teacher … and a damn good one, at that.
