My youngest nephew's jaw actually dropped at totality. Paul, this giant English bear of a man ,choked up and exchanged man hugs with the jokester from Brunei for whom it was also a first eclipse. They are a really lizard rain experience. I'll share more when I have a real keyboard.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I am already making plans for the 2017 eclipse. THey are vague and contingent plans, but still.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Huh -- my coworker just came over to talk about the football team of our mutual alma mater, and was doing that thing where you call the team "we," which I have always thought was weird, even when I was a current student! She was super excited about the whole thing. This is why we aren't friends: not that there's anything wrong with her, but we literally couldn't be more different in our tastes and interests.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

a really lizard rain experience

Hrrm? Oh! Oh.

that thing where you call the team "we," which I have always thought was weird

Oh, the West Indies everything team is totally we. Always has been, always will be. They are deliberately representing us, so why wouldn't they be?

It's a totally common thing! I still don't get it.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Happy Birthday sumi!

Congrats Nilly!

All the tests on Nova came back normal, so the teeth cleaning is back on. We'll see how things go from there.
