Just took a walk with Peretz by the light of a pretty fascinating half moon, now totally occluded by backlit clouds, now almost perfectly clear with a vivid orange-brown halo, now filtered by an irregularly textured veil- in one of the phases where it's hard to imagine anyone ever thinking it anything other than a sphere, the edge of the shadow making the curvature of the surface very plain.

Pretty sure I'm going to wake up with a cold, left nostril keeps closing up, temperature seems odd, don't know if it's high or low, been going through quantities of fluids.

Peretz just burst forth from the basement, panting heavily.
