Didn't look much different from around 3am, just lost some of the light on the one side. But it was nice to just stand there and chat with my brother over hot chocolate as we watched. :3

And it was pretty cool to think a bunch of people all over the continent were standing outside, watching the same thing, bearing the same damn cold I was. xD;

My mom just woke up, and we went out into the backyard to watch for the moon. We could see it for a second, but then it went away. ):
..Meanwhile, my dog started attacking me with love. XD

In Alaska, your eyes can freeze shut when you blink. No joke.

インフェルノの津波 December 21st, 2010 12:38 AM

Erica, double post :(.

Ah, I see now.

BTW, I wish I had a camera. My stupid brick phone doesn't have it.

Ugggh I hate when this happens. :( It only happens if your eyes are watery/you get snow in them but when it's super windy, it's practically inevitable unless you're brushing the wet out of your eyes. Ugggh.

I hate wet cold.

インフェルノの津波 December 21st, 2010 12:44 AM

WHUT.

Your eyes...can freeze shut...

I'm now scared of Alaska.

Alice December 21st, 2010 12:45 AM

It was like 20 minutes ago. lol

twistedpuppy December 21st, 2010 12:45 AM

In those situations you should wear sunglasses. Protect your eyes and look fancy.

Heated sunglasses?

I'm not sure how they would help otherwise. lol

Cherrim December 21st, 2010 12:47 AM

Sunglasses or similar things don't always help that much. :p

And it's not like... instant... :( idk, when you're used to that kind of weather you also know how to deal with it. And having ice in your eyelashes isn't that bad if you get indoors quickly to dry off. :p

インフェルノの津波 December 21st, 2010 12:48 AM

Get goggles. Look much cooler than those over-rated sunglasses.

Digimon promotes them.

Cherrim December 21st, 2010 12:49 AM

I have never done that. Gotten my tongue stuck to a popsicle in the middle of summer before though. xD;

That's mortifying. D:
I just can't even imagine getting ice on my eyes.
How do you see to get indoors? D:

インフェルノの津波 December 21st, 2010 12:52 AM

I've seen a dog do that. Poor thing :(.

Cherrim December 21st, 2010 12:52 AM

Oh no. D: W-what exactly do you do to fix it? I don't think I could ever bring myself to rip away or something. Ouch.

Agreed.

I want Rita's. (Tales of Vesperia.)

professor plum December 21st, 2010 12:54 AM

I-I would never actually lick a pole or something like that. Even if there's no risk of it getting stuck. XD; Germs and whatnot.. D:
It's happened to me, though, with a Popsicle as well.

Classic. And ouch!
How do even get unstuck? Run hot water or something?

Totally forgot about googles. Love em!

インフェルノの津波 December 21st, 2010 12:55 AM

Who's she?

You know, cold-related injuries are nothing compared to fire-related. 1st degree burns hurt man.

professor plum December 21st, 2010 12:56 AM

I beg to differ. Severe cold injuries can be equivilant to third degree burns. I'm talking like when exposed to liquid nitrogen, etc.
Stuff that causes your fingers/etc to break off.

Also, I just looked up some heated sunglasses. They exist.
And some are actually pretty stylish. o3o

インフェルノの津波 December 21st, 2010 12:59 AM

True, but burns can happen faster. Something like hypothermia takes a while to sink in unless you're in like water or really exposed to cold elements.

I stuck my tongue on a pole once, as a dare. I miss those taste buds...

Awesome!
I wonder if heated jackets exist as well. I was gonna say underwear, but then thought to myself that it might cause burns. xDD

Don't be so sure. If you dump out a cup of boiling Coffee in Alaska-cold weather, it'll freeze before it hits the ground. (Or so my mom says... I've never had the chance to try it. lol)

インフェルノの津波 December 21st, 2010 1:06 AM

Heated underwear exists.

Alaska sounds like a scary place :(.

In Jolly ol' Enlgand it snowed on Friday and we still have heavy snow here on Tuesday.
