NARRATIVE

I was laying on my couch facing my window which faces south.  I looked up at the window and saw one large orb of light.  It was flying west towards the mountains at a level in the sky that would be just a little too low for a commercial plane unless it were landing.  It stopped moving immediately and just sat in the sky for a moment.  
Suddenly the orb of light got very dim to the point where you could almost not see it anymore, and then immediately re lit very bright causing a bit of a flash and then disappeared without a trace.  It wasn't just further away in any direction, it flashed and then was completely gone.  This all was in the duration of about 8 seconds.
