"There's always a story. It's all stories, really. The sun coming up every day is a story. Everything's got a story in it."
-- Terry Pratchett

Sometimes I struggle cause I think I might totally lack empathy, but then I remember my processing and understanding is just not main stream and I can appreciate moments without showing it in the same way others do.
This sunrise picture has nothing to do with that but it is pretty.
A photo of a dense, mostly sillouetted tree line. The sky is a deep blue-purple with two streaks of pink clouds.

It is not yet 10am and I already hate today.
Here is an art that I also hate.
A dot mandala done in teal, purple, and green a square white canvas. The colors and the negative space are weird.

Sometimes my dog waits for an invitation to come in even when the door is wide open, and it's only just now occurred to me that maybe he is part vampire.
A photo of a wide open door. On the other side of the door a black lab-pit mix dog stands outside, waiting and staring.

I like the swirl of it
A painting of a seahorse on a rectangular black canvas. The water is done in swirls of blues created using dots of paint and the seahorse shape is left in negative space. A painting of a whale shark on a rectangular canvas. The shark is royal blue with silver patterns created using dots of paint. The background is a swirly paint pour of blue, teals and silver.

Experimental different background color and pattern idea.
Too much experimentation; not a huge fan of this one.
A dot art mandala on a round board canvas. It has a starburst pattern in the center and flowers around the edge. The background is bright green.

Some days you just need an emotional support lobster.
Lobstromonous.

If I was going to pick a word to describe these berries, that word would not be "chill."

Well, that sure is some aurora alright.
The wispy wave forms aren't very distinct where I am but the color is great
A picture of the night sky, with stars. The bottom half is a mauve-y pink color that fades into typical black night at the top of the frame. A picture of the night sky with sillouetted trees at the bottom edge. There is a burst of brilliant pink that takes up the bottom right quadrant of the photo and slowly fades to deep purple at the edges of the frame.

Today was not my favorite day.
But here are some sparkly eyed friends.
Two plushies on a couch; a penguin with glittery blue eyes and a crochet pigeon with glittery purple eyes.

The trees have begun decorating themselves
Several yellow-green and orange leaves dangle from thin branches. At their tips rain drops glisten. In the background is a tall deciduous tree with still-green leaves. In the foreground is an evergreen tree. A vine with bright red leaves is woven through it.

No commentary needed (or indeed, possible)
A photograph of a full moon in the black sky. The moon is toward left corner of the photo and the rest is pure black.

Reach
An almost- full moon in a gray sky. At the bottom of the frame the sky takes on an ever so slightly rosy hue and there are sillouetted trees tops. Their bare branches seem to be stretching toward the moon.
