I stayed up all night so I wouldn’t miss it. Then I decided around 8:00 that it wouldn’t hurt to rest my eyes for twenty minutes or so. When I woke up around 10:50ish, I’d missed essentially the whole thing.

My sister caught it, though. She decided to look directly at the sun, thinking her sunglasses were protection enough. She told me it left her seeing spots. My sister is a Darwin Award winner in the making.
