You Say it's your Earth Day?

I meant to post this over the weekend, but I got caught up in, you know, stuff. So here is my belated Earth Day post.


Dear Planet Earth:

Hey there! Well, another year together...I can't believe we made it! I just wanted to let you know that you are the best planet EVER! You are always there for me when I need you, and you make me happy when I'm down. Plus, you keep me alive each and every day. Thanks for that.

I know some of the other kids bully you and treat you like shit. I am SO sorry about that! All I can say is THEY SUCK! If only they understood what a cool planet you really are, then they wouldn't be such jerks. Someday they'll be old and miserable and they'll be all like "Why weren't we nicer to Earth? We really need her now!" But I know that you are the coolest planet EVER, and I will never forget that.

We've had some great times together, right? Remember that time in Yosemite? Man, you looked SO hot that day! And those times when you made SOOOO many flowers? Crazy. Oh, and all that oxygen you make every day? So I can breath? You are SO sweet to do that!

I can't wait to spend some time with you this summer...it will be WILD! I'll bring the beer if you bring the food!

Love ya!
Tracy

I don't like to play the which-planet-is-best game. All of the sun's orbiting bodies have their pros and cons.

For example, Jupiter, outside of the huge storm and lack of solid ground and unbreathable atmosphere, is quite lovely in the autumn.

Uranus is not as stinky... I'm not even going to finish typing that.


[That first Yosemite pic looks familiar...]
