Leash-walking a newly-spayed-and-coned puppy several times in the night through the overgrown "wild grass" on our driveway in my nightgown and flip-flops... not my idea of fun.
But meeting the full moon right outside the door... stepping out into a world washed with its light... hearing the distant howl of coyotes...
...pure magic.
(And almost worth the sleep I was missing.)
