I’ve seen 3 partial solar eclipses, including one that was very near total. I was definitely of the “who cares?” mentality leading up to this one.
When the totality hit, I actually said “oh wow… ok, I get it now”. It was truly a surreal experience. I took the day off simply to avoid traffic...
I’m retarded. The Mrs. Has reminded me I have another commitment that day.
I’m signed up for both 1100 and 1200, so there’s 2 spots if anyone missed out.
