The moon is becoming more full by the day, and should be fully “full” by Thursday. Friday, it’s supposed to be a lunar eclipse, and a “blood red moon,” which looks like this:

Me and my trivia team are very, very excited about this turn of events! For one, we gravitate toward the mystical, superstitious and…weird. Our trivia team’s fight song specifically mentions a “blood red moon.” Check out the lyrics below:

“Bright are the stars When the stars are right Hurrah for the Purple and Green! Into the darkness That swallows the light Hurrah for the Purple and Green! Oh, when the Dead City rises Full of watery surprises, And Cthulhu stirs from his Cyclopean tomb, We’ll dance by the light of the blood red moon. And Cthulhu will swallow your soul!!! Iä! Iä! F’htagn Iä! Hurrah for the Purple and Green!”

When me and my team sing this one, I usually “attempt” to harmonize with Mike and Brad. Though Brad really can’t sing AT ALL. Mike puts forth a good effort, and has a nice baritone, so I can feel like a “soprano” by comparison! I’m really not, though, I’m more of a mezzo soprano, but I digress!

I’d like to hope that with all of this moon action comes trivia victory! We’ll have a trivia battle on Thursday, when the moon is supposed to be at its peak.

If you hear someone over the next few days casually say, “It must be a full moon?” You can say, “Why yes, it is!” Embrace the madness! Just GO with it already!  🙂
