Look outside.  Total lunar eclipse. 

It's 13 degrees F outside, and I'm heading out anyway to watch for a few.  It's worth it.  Great view.  And as you all know, I'm partial to lunar eclipses.

I CAN'T SEE IT! And I went down anyways to try and see and it was a bad idea because I'm sick and the walk down drained me and askjdhaskjdsa... :( I want pictures.

Total. Lunar. Eclipse. Yaaaay! The moon looks so scary, it's amazing. I'm really glad it cleared up. We were expecting snow tonight. D:

Wasn't it breathtaking! I tried to shoot pictures, they all were blurred and bad. But I won't forget it, anyway!

Ha! I got to watch it from inside, where it was nice and warm. Very beautiful!

I watched most of it from inside (perfect view from our bedroom window), but I wanted to look from outside for a little while. It was worth it to really stand outside and feel like you're directly underneath it. But yeah, I watched most of it from inside, and when it reached completion, I went outdoors for a few minutes. :D

It was a beautiful one, too. I didn't want to go back inside.

I missed it when it was completely eclipsed because of intermittent cloud cover, but I did go out a few times over the course of it. It was very awesome to see what I did of it though.

It was awesome; I even got a few pictures! (I think they would have turned out better if I had used a different setting on my camera, but the other night-time settings involved the shutter staying open for several seconds, and I don't have a tripod....)

UGH! I missed it! Dear GOD now I have to wait another two years. Happy you caught it :)

Oooh, yes, that was beautiful. It was the first real full lunar eclipse I've ever seen (that I can remember).

I saw another one just like this a few years ago. I think it was 2002. I watched it from my college campus. I was on campus late for some major lab work, and I kept sneaking outside to watch. It was incredible.

And people wonder why I wrote a whole story centered on a lunar eclipse. They're bloody amazing.
