Does the full moon scare you??

Werewolves. Witches. Vampires. Lunatics. Ghosts. So many superstitions have been associated with the full moon.

But there's also romance associated with it. "When the moon hits your eye like a big pizza pie that's amore...," the song goes. A moonlit walk on the beach is lovely. A proposal under a heavy moon looks magical.

What's the first thing you feel when you find out there's a full moon outside?

It doesn't scare me, but for some reason when there is a full moon - I can't seem to sleep well!

I hate the full moon - I am one of those people that has a bit of lunatic in them. I go a bit nuts. Maybe I suffer a bit of lycanthropy!! I actually avoid going out with friends on a full moon.

I love the full moon... it seems to make everyone a little crazy. The moon controls the tides, and with humans having a very high water content in our bodies, it surely controls us to a certain extent as well.

That's what I reckon anyway.

Amy: Oooh maybe there are werewolves around you... kidding!

gaye: Maybe we should all be a little kooky on full moon nights and blame it on the moon!

Dr. E: Love that perspective.

Jason: That's interesting! I know of some people who get really moody when a full moon's out.

Amy: Heehee, perhaps?

raven: Aaah! Stay away from my mozzarella, anchovies and roasted garlic pizza!

Journeywoman: That makes me wonder how the full moon affects me. How does it make you a little crazy?

I just feel a bit unsettled, more loose-tongued, and more likely to do something stupid like binge drink or get really high. It's hard to define.

Thoughts on seeing the full moon, in order:

1. Why don't we have a colony up there already??

2. Watch out, Professor Lupin

3. Why does it look bigger on the horizon than when it's up higher?

4. Poor moths, following their little mothy instincts, trying to find the moon and all they can find are car headlights and the blinky neon outside the Adult Toy shop.

Nice post

Here's a spooky little fact for you. My mum is a nurse who spent quite a few years working in phsyciatric (I know I have spelt this wrong but I just can't remember the proper spelling} wards and she swear when there is a full moon it is a known fact in these kind of places that the patients act crazier than usual. She swears a full moon causes changes in people.

gaye: Okay noted then: Stay away from psychiatric wards during full moons. Just to be safe.

Whoa, Toni, you didn't mention the " . . . mozzarella, anchovies and roasted garlic pizza," initially or I'd have been snooping about for left overs.....

Odd, that a were-raven would love handfuls of raw or roasted garlic on his mozzarella and anchovy pizza?? Makes you want to skritch you head feathers over that one.
