Dissapearing Star?

I don't think what I saw was a UFO, But I did see something I have never seen before in the night sky>

I was out side smoking a ciggarette inbetween 8-10 in the evening. An like usual on a clear night i always look up and wish on a star and star gaze for a few moments and a star in my general direction
(If it was a star) got imensly bright and grew in size and then dissapeared.

I know I saw this and was not under the influence of anything besides nicotene. Is their any explanation for this and has this kind of thing been seen before and if so what the hell is it?


((NUFORC Note: Flare from an Iridium satellite, we suspect. PD))
