In the Dark:
It is clouded over today; so, we missed the sunrise. The colors in winter are quite dramatic as the sun's angle is steeper--or something. More of the silica in the air gets engaged I think.
For awhile, I thought that the sunrise time had shifted radically when I was not paying attention; but that is not the case. The 'cause' was the unusual event of complete cloud cover; about a one in twenty shot.
Biking backward:
Went out on the regular weekly bike ride and took advantage of the lapse in sunglare by doing the 18 mile route backward; clockwise. This makes the ride altogether different of course. What hills that are usually up are now down and routine downs are up. The scenery shifts significantly and sights occur in front which normally are to the back. I feel as though I took a trip to another place. Cheap vacation. The bunnies and the road runners were all in the same places though.
Bzzzz continued:
The mild drama of the new car purchase continues. John just told me that he prefers the Touring model of the Sebring convertible (see below) over the GTC. We are in the fine tuning (yawn) phase of the selection. I am not indifferent but I am less, shall we say, engaged in this than John. If you want to play the game of wringing out the last best detail take a look at:
SEBRING CONVERTIBLE
And send HIM the results of your study.
Hung Jury:
My detachment is a bit less than perfect. I notice that the 'whelm' of jury duty hangs a bit heavier than I would like. My 'easy does it' stance is crumbling a bit. I just realized that I will have to leave here at about 6AM to get to the Indio Courthouse in time for the 730 last minute arrival time. This is a new development; an hour earlier startup.
Am I over-reacting?
