*contemplates the full moon*

You know what? It's true. I never have seen a waning moon. I always see it either full or waxing (or possibly new, but I don't know about that). MAYBE, I see it a day after the full moon, but that's it. And it's not intentional, either, because every time I notice the moon isn't full anymore, but it's getting fuller, I realize that, yup, once again I've missed it waning.

This month will be different. If I have to get out of bed in the middle of the night, I will. I *will* see the waning moon.

You don't have to get out of bed in the middle of the night to see it. The waning Moon is visible in the daytime sky. this site (http://aa.usno.navy.mil/faq/docs/moon_phases.html) will give you the accurate time of moonrise and moonset for your location, for any day - click on "Complete Sun and Moon Data for One Day". *smiles* Enjoy!

The problem isn't that I'm not around when it's up, the problem is that I forget to look! What I meant is "even if I only remember in the middle of the night, and have to leave my bed to see it, I'll do so".
