Sunsets

Today, for the first time, I noticed that I can see the sun setting from my apartment. Yes, I know I probably should have noticed it before…and yes, I’ve been here at sunset. A couple years ago I heard in a presentation by a brain/neuro-scientist that humans aren’t very good at noticing small changes in their environment. Humans typically notice big changes, and the cumulative effects of small changes, but not the small changes themselves. So as time has progressed since I got here in February till today…I’m sure the sun’s position was moving ever so slightly. In any event, yay, the sunset.
