I remember driving to WV during an eclipse, I suppose it must have been in 2012, and glancing up to see a big bite out of the sun. I didn’t realize that an eclipse would be happening, so we were unprepared.

This time we’re more prepared. Although, we would have to travel 3 hours to get to the full eclipse, and since my girlfriend is working that day, we’re staying put. If it isn’t cloudy, I may even get to see it with a cereal box pinhole camera or some binoculars pointed at the sidewalk.

PSA: Don’t stare right at even a partial eclipse or you’ll poke your eyes out with deadly sun lasers. Keep your pets inside, lest they become enraptured by the mystic gloom and gaze heavenward. Also, brush your teeth.

That last one is just general advice.
