(no subject)
imagine that look that jeanie from ferris buller's day off gets when she thinks about her brother. that what i spent much of this afternoon looking like, scowling with burning hatred at my computer. it's not so much the computer, really, but the program i use most of the time at work. we've moved all of our geographic data from access to oracle, except for a few random features that just don't want to go. no matter what i did. tedious troubleshooting. ugh.

i had just returned from a fun afternoon/evening with ry and sy last night and having dropped them off at their car parked on a side street near my apartment, i pulled into an empty space in front of my building. i opened the car door feeling a little bit disappointed that my outing for the evening was over just as i was starting to enjoy the cooling temperature and looked out and over my shoulder to see brilliant hues of pinks and vibrant peaches painted across the cool turquoise sky. i sat and stared for a moment, trying to decide if i could beat the sinking star in a race to buy batteries for my dead digital camera. wanting to drive west and chase the exhibition in the sky, but knowing i would be the winner in the race, i choose to head east, to the grocery store, and watched as the sunset died in my review mirror. ...if only you could have seen those colors, like embers, before it faded into dusk...
here's one from a couple weeks ago. i don't like it as much as the one i posted on june 27th, but it's still pretty...
[what is my fascination with sunsets lately? maybe it is the glow in my heart has only made my disposition more sunny, brightening appreciation for all things light.]
