Solar Eclipse

[momijizukamori]

So I was not really paying attention to solar eclipse stuff other than a vague sense that it was happening sometime this year somewhere in the US, and then I looked up the path and realized I'm less than a three hour drive from the path of totality (it's like, 3-4 hours to get really close to the center line), and I have now become the obnoxious person checking driving times and trying to get my local friends to do a road trip with me, etc etc, because my two settings are 'indifference' and '200% in'.

(it is also a week after Anime Boston and like three days after a concert that was supposed to be last fall and got postponed, so that'll be exciting, lol)

Totally worth it to go see one.

That's what I've been reading! I'm a little worried New England weather will thwart us, but I'll see as we get closer, I guess.

Whee have fun!

Quite honestly, there is a *huge* difference in impact/perception/impressiveness between a partial and a total eclipse. I have seen a total eclipse, and woah man. Do it. I hope you can convince your friends! <3

That's what I've heard, yeah! Hopefully the weather will be cooperative....
