I'd like to know why is it that I work while the beautiful
sunrises are happening and then I get up early on my day off and bundle up and drive all the way down into town and its overcast! LOL

You must be being punished for activities in a previous life. Try living better, or check the weather reports before going to bed. Not that that always helps since their wrong more than half the time anyway.

Two solutions:
a) retire
b) change your work days to only when it rains

On several occasions I wanted to photograph sunrises in which cloud cover spoiled my shot. I just kept getting up day after day until finally I could get my shots. I have no animosity toward mother nature. I just take it in stride as I have grown accustom to in photography. The shots are always well worth the wait.

I am almost old enough to retire or at least collect the small amount of social security but I have considered just changing my jobs so I can start after sunrise. Pretty bad huh! But alas I realize photography is all about persistance and patience.

Boy it would be so nice, that every time we got up early we could get a outstanding photo. But that's life.

You live in Oregon. Isn't the appearance of the sun something like a solar eclipse for the rest of the world?

Your probably right Jerry but I keep on hoping for that vitamin D the rest of you get.

work is a dirty four letter word. in the words of the greatest arena rock band of the 70's " if you ever get annoyed look at us were self employed, we love to work at nothin each day. were Takin care of Business..." For the yougins that was a song by Bachman Turner Overdrive long before it was the office depot jingle.
on another note, don't curse overcast days, they are a blessing. overcast days turn the sky into a giant difussed softbox, and pumps up the color for flower shots, gives nice soft lighting for outdoor portraits, and makes it easier and cooler to shoot in the early afternoon.

I am retiring in two months so I can spend more quality time with my camera. My wife thinks I am nuts because I never sleep in when we are on vacation; "Hey, I have to catch the good light!"

It's because of the guardian angels you were issued.
Some of them have a morbid sense of humor and some of them make life easy.
Murphy's law was written by the humorous angels.
I have a lot of those comedian angels assigned to me.
I hope I don't become one.
