When I get up in the morning, it takes me about 10 or 15 minutes before I can really read this computer.
I mentioned this to my eye doctor when he checked me out recently, and he said the same thing happens to him. "What do you expect at your age?" he asked.
While standing outside with courthouse workers, one of them was kind enough to let me borrow her eclipse glasses, and I took a quick look. .
It was amazing! I also did notice it cool down and get a little darker. Nothing like being in the path of totality, but still very nice.
Tonight, my eyes feel like someone stuck a hot poker in them. It's not the eclipse. It's allergies, which make my eyes burn.
That never happened when I was younger, either.
Yesterday, I expressed by doubts about the Easton aquarium proposed by the DaVinci Science Center. I am disturbed to read a comment from someone that this nonprofit was charging $7.99 for $2 eclipse glasses. I don't know if this accusation is true, but if it is, that demonstrates pretty clearly what officials there really think of the public.
