My favorite subject in college had nothing to do with my communications major.
I took Astronomy 101 and 102 to avoid the chemistry sequence that my BS degree required. I will always be grateful to the University of Kentucky for this ‘broadening of my horizons,’ because it introduced me to Professor Thomas Troland.
Dr. Troland was one of the best teachers I have ever had. His sense of humor made his classes zip by, and made me a true fan of astronomy, a subject I had little knowledge of prior to college.
If you are interested in the upcoming total eclipse of the sun, I encourage you to give a look-see to this UK news story featuring Dr. Troland, who I am proud to say is a good friend to this day.
Lunar lament
How was your day?
If you’ve had far better (like me), I have a two-word explanation:
Mini Moon
I had a bad headache most of the day. My dog seemed to feel a bit punky, too. And I was running from appointment to appointment all day…so I am wiped.
Seems logical to blame the moon, right?
