Do you like Piña Coladas?

Or getting caught in the rain?

No.  As a matter of fact, I do not.

But what I do like?

Sunsets.

Yes, I know.  I’m not one of those touchy feely rainbows and unicorns and butterflies and long walks on the beach schmoopsie-poo type girls.  Blech.

But . . . I have traveled quite a bit.  And I have had the opportunity to see some amazing sunsets.  And something about them just moves me.  I don’t know what, but I think the colors and the way the sky kind of glows and is just not quite dark yet, but is fast approaching it, and the way the clouds get all lit up and reflective.  It’s just sort of magical sometimes.

I know, shut up.

So, having an abundance of absolutely nothing to post about today, I decided that I would post some recent pics I have been taking on my way home of the sunsets.  See, every day in the winter, I drove into the descending sun, and sometimes got to see some remarkable sunsets.  So I started capturing them on film.  Some turned out pretty cool.  Some, not so much.  But, I have quite the collection now.

Granted, these are not going to be Key West Sunsets, or the sun setting over Point Loma in San Diego, or even the sun going down over the bay in Ocean City, MD.  They are just pictures of the sun setting behind clouds on my way home and sometimes from my front porch.  A lot of them are fuzzy.  Because I was driving.  But I’m ok with that.  I still think they are pretty cool.

If you have no interest in this shit, come back on Wednesday where I will be talking about Roller Derby.  Much more exciting, I’m sure . . .

Not a sunset . . . but I thought the reflective nature of this building with the sky as backdrop and reflection was completely awesome.

On the drive home from AC on my Birthday . . . the sky looked like this.

Ok, all done with my boring sunset pics.

I was going to close the comments on this, but don’t know how and also don’t really care if you want to lambast me in the comments.  I am definitely not looking for “pretty pictures” or “nice” or anything like that.  This was more for me than anyone else.  So, if you have something to say, feel free, but just know I don’t need you to humor me.  I know exactly what I did here, thank you very much.
