It is SO dark here today, it feels like the sun is perpetually setting. The clouds are thick, and there's some fog drifting around the knees of the mountain. The eaves drip half heartedly, sloughing off some of the drizzle falling on the roof.
All this gray and damp was making me a bit glum. Then I made the mistake of trying to watch a movie, only to discover I had chosen one that in every outdoor scene it look eerily like the view out of my own window. I had to turn it off in self defense.
I needed a distraction quickly, before life could get any more gothic. So I got out my watercolors.
I feel better now... but alas the sun really IS going down as I write this, and I'm fresh out of coping strategies.... unless I start eating cookies and milk.
