A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Well, my hair is darker than I expected. It's got merlot to dark violet highlights. I am getting it cut tomorrow, since my last cut was last December.

I'll have to see after the cut and a couple of shampoos, but I'm leaning towards adding some brighter purple streaks to it.

I've had dark red, but this is the darkest my hair's been in over 20 years.

We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix

Oregon state parks open up for reservations during next year's eclipse at 12:01 and I have been deputized to get a couple of camp sites by my family.

Oh, that's brilliant! Where in Oregon?

Sounds pretty, Strix, even if it wasn't what you had in mind.

I'm looking at Detroit Lake and Cove Palisades. They're both in the path of totality - Detroit Lake is west of Mt. Jefferson nestled in that range and Cove Palisades is near Madras, which is supposed to have a high probability of clear skies on the day.

The Stacked Grilled Cheese Burger, by the way, is pretty good if you like that sort of thing, but not so amazing that I will need to seek it out again, probably.

And I failed. Great.

Our wings are not tired.

I'm sorry, -t. I hope an alternate plan presents itself.

I need a new background noise tv option for the morning. I used to watch Morning Joe, but still on a news blackout. HGTV seems obsessed with tiny houses which are not appealing to my oversized world. Food channels are good, but I already gained 9 pounds since mom died, so not a great plan. Right now I have BBC on with ST:TNG on which is good for the moment.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

-t, I would suggest that was not your failure, but rather bad luck/overwhelming demand. Assuming that 12:22 was already too late.

I need a new background noise tv option for the morning.

I don't know if it's the same during the week, but on the weekend, Buzzr often has old "To Tell The Truth" and similar calm shows on in the morning. If it's "Press Your Luck" or whatever, I would vote no, but anything with Dorothy Kilgallen gets a thumbs up from me.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

I expect eclipse viewing sites move pretty quickly. Astro folks are a dedicated lot.

I see some GIBO on YouTube. Is that the best place to find it?
