Good morning, world. We’re up, well, all of us aside from Pippin, who’s curled into a cinnamon roll shape and sleeping with her eyes open again. I woke up while Shawshank was making his breakfast, and said goodbye to him when he left.
We survived the eclipse. Unsurprisingly, no one in the household was raptured. I started the morning with some Just Dance, which set the pace for the rest of my day. I headed outside around noon with a bunch of toys. With the last eclipse, I was still working in the pharmacy, and grabbed about 6 pairs of sunglasses from the rack to check it out (safely and not staring directly at it because I’m not a moron). Unfortunately, I only had one pair here this time around. We had too much cloud cover to see much of anything. Shawshank took some pics, though, and he’ll post them eventually.
I brought two pairs of poi and a leviwand outside. I played with the pods for a while, then switched to the balls. It felt good to be able to stretch out and actually move. Initially, I’d gone outside wearing a sweatshirt and Vibrams, but the weather was absolutely wonderful for spin time. It wasn’t really warm, but it was by no means cold. I was a little worried that whatever sweat I worked up would make shit too cold. After about half an hour of playing, I decided to risk flowing without the extra layer and footwear.
And that’s exactly how Shawshank found me when he came home two hours later.
My shipment of elastic came in yesterday’s mail, so I can start finishing some pants.
