Did I tell you guys I saw a UFO?

The answer to the title is, "Of course not" unless you're like one of three people. But yeah, I saw an honest-to-god genuine UFO a few weeks ago, as I was exiting a bar with my wife and friend.

The funny part is that neither of them saw it.

It was triangular shaped, a series of glowing lights that spun around as they flew slowly behind a building. It was too low to the ground for an airplane (seemingly), and made absolutely no noise (it was 1am, so I would've heard it).

If you're into the whole UFO scene, you'll know this is not an unheard of circumstance. The "Flying Triangle" UFO is one discribed time and time again. So there ya go, it's real.

Well, not really.

I saw another one again about a week later, except this time, rather than disappearing behind a building, it turned and flew back across the city. It was a little one-person airplane. It had flashing lights on its tail and wings, and enough of them to actually suggest a full triangular shape. But the truth was that it was just a simple little plane.

So for me, the UFO became a IFO (identified flying object). And that was that.

It's rather depressing to have something happen that's all strange and mysterious, and think "wow, this is the kind of proof I've been waiting for all this time! I can almost bring myself to believe that aliens are here!"

And then realize that, actually... well... no. Just a plane.

Ah well.
