flowers

One of the random benefits of my banking/insurance/investment company is the random discounts that I don't use often enough. I get a big discount on flowers from Teleflora, and from time to time I get flyers from them. There was one in the mail today, and it is full of spring/Easter things that are bright and colorful. It made me want more flowers to go with the roses on my bedside table. (Which are opening up beautifully) Today I saw lots of bluebonnets, which was a good thing. I like flowers enormously, even though they are fleeting gestures. I was a lot happier when I stopped waiting for other people to buy them for me, and started buying them for myself. It makes me glad to see them around. Of course, I dither and can't decide. So the internet must help me decide what I should get for spring.

#1 Spring Lavender

this was the song on the radio that told me it was okay

And finding time so hard I pray
Let this moment last forever
And will the world stay standing still
at least for me?

I'm getting a little tired of near death car experiences. Today I watched a speeding car in front of my home skid across the wet pavement and stop less than a foot from my car. All I could think was that I didn't put my seatbelt back on after I checked the mail, and I was probably going to break my damned nose on the steering wheel or something. It was a distinctly unpleasant moment.
