Emily’s NEW positivity and being nice to each other thread

The moon didn't quite get the job done here. But I can see a crescent sun in pinhole shadows, and a sort of eerie dimness without the reddening color that usually comes with it. And the lizards are acting strange.
 
You haven't heard? It's a giant orgy out here. Clear across the country. Reports are coming in from all corners of people getting it on in the middle of the road, in fields, in parks, in office buildings. Nobody can explain it. This might be the end of the world as we know it...
If it is, I feel fine. I’ve had a good life. Hurry up and end things please. ;)

Just the end of the world as we know it, not the end of the world. You know, the repressed, moralistic world we know. Like the eclipse triggered some rewiring of human brains....

This is a positivity thread, remember? And I'm germinating an E&V story idea that, if I see it through, will be very poorly timed.

EDIT: ... or timed just right for NND.
 
Uh oh, Lord Vader just altered the deal to two more goats and two more chickens. He suggested we pray he doesn’t alter it any further.
 
Anyone else have photos?

I got sent one by someone I know in Dallas. Obv not gonna post it here, but was pretty cool.

I"m so sorry we couldn't make our contribution to the festivities. It was a great show, however. We saw solar flares (I think) during totality. Amazing.
 
I sometimes think the road planners around here went to the Vogon School of Highway Design.
Where I live it's more like the Vogon School of Permissions and Planning and Intruding on People's Lives and All the Associated Forms and Formalities and Procedures and Related Procedures.
 
Positive, I was blessed with another day.
My Neighborhood BBQ Eclipse Party went great.
I stopped counting at 50 people.
44 confirmed coming, last week.
The only things that I ran out of were brownies and cupcakes.

The eclipse itself, was incredibly beautiful.
We were in "totality" for over 3 minutes.
I'm happy that I was alive to see it, and more importantly, clean for it.

The reception of my latest story has exceeded my expectations. A little more than 800 views today, with four comments already. The first ten votes were all 5s, with one 4 since then.

The strange thing is that this isn't really a story I'd point to and say, "This is some of my best work," or even "This is the hottest scene I've written." But apparently my readers disagree, and who am I to argue with those fine, discerning people?
