It's clear here, surprisingly. Not to be a nerd, but it's only a partial eclipse. Still quite a sight.

No, it's gone total about 5 minutes ago.  Not that we can see it here any longer.

I hate for this to sound poor, but remember, I deal with death everyday so I've become more numb to a lot of it compared to most of the population. 

A lot of these celebrity deaths came at an age 80+ and I know modern medicine has advanced the death age overall, but that's still a solid age to go. Obviously Hayden P and the younger ones that went are more rare and shocking, but hearing about an 85 year old or a 94 year old, especially with chronic conditions passing away, just feels sorta normal to me. 

No doubt.  Its just that celebrities aging and dying reminds us of our own aging and mortality.

That's because it is normal.  Not every death is tragic.

Damn and on video, wow. Getting struck up top was a lifesaver, that and if that umbrella had a rubber handle. If he got hit down low with no insulator..... Oof. 

Still, crazy

Today marks a year since I had to put my dog down. I miss him every day.

My 4 year old keeps asking me if I'm going to go to heaven after my birthday.

That's the worst. I've done that several times. My current lab girl is 6 . It will be the last dog since I cannot deal with the pain of losing them anymore. Every time I lost one, I would have a new one within a month. Always rescues.

I encountered Sabres/Mandalorian mashup at Dragon Con. I didn’t ask if it was considered a Buffalo Fett or Buffalorian by preference. 

Good costume though.
