The only effect it has on me is I get to see my backyard at night. I love how it lights up everything.

How it effects others? This could be a plausible explanation for some of the insanity this weekend. I'm not going to say what it was but I will say "it was a Full Moon, crazy things happen."

 I was in a restaurant yesterday and a man walked in and started complaining to the poor person behind the counter  about lemon slices in his meal, which was salmon. This went on for about 10 minutes and I have to hand it to the waiter; she handled it quite well. About five minutes later he walked back in and started complaining again how about lemon slices. He finally walked away and the person was completely frazzled and I asked her, was it because he didn't get enough lemon slices and she said no it was because he got two lemon slices and he didn't want them. 

Yes the moon is full!
