Of Stars and Dogs

I took Dr. Reuben Sandwich (PhD, JD, DOG) out for a midnight run last night. Just as we left our driveway, I looked up and saw a meteor streak across the Summer Triangle (formed by Vega, Deneb, & Altair). I tried to keep my eye on the sky thereafter but Reuben is a fast-paced little bulldog who gives one little leisure for stargazing.

I did see a lot of meteors later on in my dreams, though. Reuben may have done the same, but he hasn’t mentioned it.
