Thing 13: On the Moonpost

On the Moon Our residence on the moon is completely sustainable. If you look closely you can see the glint of our reflective solar panels just to the side of Copernicus, if you squint. In our hydroponic farm we grow heirloom tomatoes of many varieties: Oxheart, Dixie Golden Giant, Yellow Brandywine, Mandarin Cross, and Green Zebra, just to name a few. We reuse everything on the moon, but the food is quite tasty. Nothing smells like piss at mealtime. I'll confess I'd kill for a tender sirloin but we can do a lot of things with legumes on the moon. We get all of the channels on the satellite, and what we can't get there we download off the internet. There is no such thing as piracy on the moon. Many things are legal on the moon. Harry and Frank got married just last week and we threw them a big party. Well, a big party for the moon. They get the same benefits as everyone else on the moon. We have a lot of cool robots and plenty of time for our hobbies and one cat who's a bit skittish and a handball court in addition to the elliptical trainer and the treadmill here on the moon. Earth rise is so beautiful, darling, though the nights are very long on the moon. Burn a fire tonight, if you can. I'll try to spot it with the telescope. I'll just pretend if I can't. I miss you here on the moon.
