Planet Earth is blue and there's nothing left to do...



This is the coolest thing I've seen in a long time. In fact, I'm a little obsessed.

Allow me to digress.

I was driving to work this morning, thinking it all felt a bit like groundhog day. I idled at a stop light when the thought occurred to me, "What would happen if I turned right, got on the freeway, and drove to LA?"

I wouldn't. I never could, but then it struck me that Space Oddity had been playing in my head for at least 24 hours. I was, in my own way, attempting to "Major Tom" myself and hurl my tin can south on I-15 towards something at once familiar and unknown, but at the very least inspiring.

Instead, I just followed the same road, to the same parking space, to the same building, down the same hall, to the same room.

Maybe I need a vacation to space, or maybe, I just really need to vary my route to work.
