Starstruck

Daily writing prompt
When you were five, what did you want to be when you grew up?

By that time, I might have been reading about Clyde Tombaugh and how he discovered Pluto. I’m not sure I ever wanted to be a fireman or a police officer, but the story about Mr. Tombaugh grabbed my interest and I periodically thought about studying astronomy.

Maybe that was a bit later. My distant past is getting kind of fuzzy. It was around that time, though, that I got the bug for stargazing and looking up.
