"So thanks for the glasses!"
"You're welcome. It was nice the way that they actually worked and we're not all blind now."
"INORITE."

I hope you enjoyed it and saw all the special effects you were hoping to see.

I watched my last eclipse with a group and their cameras all kitted out in welding masks. Lol @my peer group.

We were overcast, so no corona. No-no-no no corona, umpa-shik um-um-shik umpa-shik um-um-shik.

It was still neat.

[spiralsheep]

Good. :-)

No triffid sightings yet?

[phosfate]

Well, we wouldn't see them, would we?

[spiralsheep]

But you were wearing your anti-alien invasion lightshow goggles!!1!!

[phosfate]

Mostly.

Triffids happen after meteor showers, anyway. They're probably around since the perseids.

[phosfate]

They must be hiding in the corn.

Yeah, it's always a nice feature of an eclipse party when you manage to not blind your guests.

...practically any kind of party, really.
