Notes from the balcony / fiction in a sunset

          You have a larger table on the balcony this year and have rearranged it so you might write outside. You love the greens in the Gulf as a contrast to the ‘Florida’ blue sky.


Gulf in Winter
         Strange, the more I get into the blog and learn more about Amorella the closer I feel to the Earth I live on. Maybe it is my age --  retirement moves on and nothing earthly appears after. Perhaps I am seeing the Earth as I do old friends, happy and fond to see them one more time each time. For us, presently, life is good.
         Post, before you have more gallows thoughts move in with a shallow breeze of dark humor from the Valley. – Amorella
         Very funny, Amorella. I do enjoy your striking sense of nail-in-the-coffin of humor. Ha!



         After lunch at the nearby Daiquiri Deck and a two-hour nap you are waiting for Carol at Publix’s – Owen was waking up and when you return you are heading to the pool for more of the afternoon.
         I probably ate too much for lunch – a Jamaican wrap, potato fries, and a small piece of pizza no less. I don’t know why I was so hungry. That’s more than I’ve eaten in a while. I probably should skip supper altogether. The day continues to be a beautiful one, what a great week when you can have the car windows down and sunroof back everyday. Kim and Paul picked a good week to come visit. Next week Linda is off so she and Carol will have a good time. Tomorrow Jean and Bob will be closing on their first house which is very nice from the pictures, it will be about an hour east of Linda and Bill’s in Port Tampa, just a few years old, good neighborhood on the east side of Brandon. It is certainly a good time to buy a house, no question about that.
         An enjoyable 45 minutes in the pool with Kim, Owen and Paul with the air temperature at 80 degrees; the pool, about 110 degrees I would imagine. Very comfortable.
         Eighteen hundred hours by your computer’s count and you have your sunset for tonight – enhanced by iPhoto – but you enjoy the sky colors, so drop it in.


Enhanced 14 December 11 Sunset at Madeira Beach
         After supper and the news I feel the above photo is a deception even if it does say ‘enhanced’. This is more of a conflict than I would have suspected, but to rectify I am including the photo as it was taken. In some ways it shows the ‘wish’ factor within. The photo below as it was and the photo above as I wish it would have been – a coincidence in the enhancement.


The Real Unenhanced Sunset photo of 14 December 11
         In some ways, to me, this is a good example of the difference between the real me, and the “mostly fictional” me. – rho
         I disagree, orndorff, in that you imply here that I, Amorella, am some sort of enhancement of passion (the intensity of colors). I do not have passion, I am not of the human-like species that exist in all the universes. I am not a human spirit, and I now better understand my error in word choice. Look on both your photographs above and you we see a better sample of myself from a human perspective. To better adjust the picture of my nature think of me as the horizontal, the horizon, and the horizon as a shell between the universe above and the universe below. All for tonight. Post. – Amorella
         I would not have thought as color as a symbol of passion though I do think of red as a color of passion. Very odd, in some ways Amorella is very much unlike myself at her core.
