Waning or Waiting??

Dear Mr. Man in the Moon.... tonight September 5th, you were supposed to rise at 9:53 p.m. Needless to say, I have been sitting in my driveway for twenty minutes waiting on you to make your debut. Tonight the moons phase was supposed to be a waning gibbous, but I was not able to see the moon so I cannot describe what it really looks like. The moon may make an appearance long after I have dosed off into RPM sleep.... ok I am trying to be scientific here.... work with me! I am disappointed in the moon to say the least.

Two hours later.... 11:45... the moon decided to come out. The moon was in fact a waning gibbous moon.
