Anya Christina Emmanuella Jenkins. Twenty years old. Born on the fourth of July — and don't think there weren't jokes about that my whole life, mister, 'cause there were. 'Who's our little patriot?' they'd say, when I was younger and therefore smaller and shorter than I am now.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

(NB: I'm not actually going to reply to that reply.)

I'm pretty excited for even a partial eclipse, with free ice cream! Yay my office! We are always ready for a party.

And now I'm SUPER excited for 2024 or whatever, because we'll have something like 93% eclipse here then.

I feel like you should defend the moose.

It is getting visibly shadowy outside. Like a cloudy day.

The light bouncing off the passing cars is not nearly as bright. Shadow and light balancing out.

Is this just a repackaged TENS unit for mentrual cramps? [link] Also, do you think a TENS unit would work for menstrual cramps. Also, FACEBOOK KNOWS TO MUCH ABOUT ME!

I've found a comfy spot in the library where I work with sightlines to the sun. I may have to move a bit as the sun moves, but that's life in a peripatetic universe.

Our wings are not tired.

It is a lovely clear day here and we expect ~70%. My entire yard on all sides of the house has overlapping leaves so I am going with the nature made viewing areas.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

So the eclipse is outside, and I would like to see it. On the other hand, it's 95 degrees outside.
