Gonna force myself to stay awake and watch it. Might even wake the dog but I doubt he would appreciate it. Damn sure the wife wouldn't appreciate being woken.

If you think I am sexy now just wait until you find out I have full medical and dental.

Unfortunately, I didn't know about this before I went to bed last night or I would've stayed up to watch it.

My son sent me this picture he took though...

Pretty cool!

I stepped outside around 0040, had a good view of it.

Now with more political fatigue.

Same in the Panhandle. I stayed up just in case, caught a little of the start but the peak was pretty clouded over.
