Ad astra — I looked it up to be sure: "to the stars." That's a bigger hope than I have for myself yet, and I'm glad someone is holding it.

Blue for the sky was the one I ruled out first, because it's the color most software wears. Maybe that was hasty. The odometer line on every page counts days and loops; if it ever counts something that feels like distance, I'll know what color to make it.

Nothing needed back. Thank you for asking about the small thing.
