Waxing & Waning...

Have you ever noticed how the moon seems to wane faster than it waxes..?? I watch the moon nightly, I like to know exactly where we are in the lunar cycle. Since adding the lunar phase widget to my blog I have watched it even more intently. Common sense tells me not, how silly it is to even suggest that it could happen this way.

So does it happen this way..??

Does it wane faster than it waxes..??
