I'm staying in for the eclipse, because I don't trust myself not to look at the sun.

So the eclipse is outside, and I would like to see it. On the other hand, it's 95 degrees outside.
It's damn hot here, too. I'm just going out for a few minutes, going back in for a little bit, back out, etc. But I'm going over to Tim's work around 2:00 (he works 1 mile from our house) to watch it hit totality (well 92% totality) with him and his co-workers.

I think we're at maximum here, it looks like early evening, just after the sun's down past the horizon.

If you're not, you should go outside for a bit. Birds get all confused and nightsong/morningsongy.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
I am seeing no difference in brightness of day here yet.

Our wings are not tired.
So cool. The NASA stream is very nice. A while before I need to go outside, but a glorious day to do so.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs
It's too warm for me outside, but I might step out for a few minutes at as close to the totality as central NC is going to see.
Meanwhile, I'm sitting in one of the library's reading rooms, which I'm sharing with a couple of extraordinarily dedicated students who don't seem to care that something is about to swallow the sun.
