There appear to be five available colors of bearded iris on Capitol Hill: white, yellow, purple, blue, and orange(!).
I have been getting grumpy walking home this week. It is beautiful and I am grumpy. Flowers nod knowingly in my direction and I am grumpy. The sun sings dopey little melodies about harmony and joy, and I am grumpy. Friendly dogs wiffle their tails and snouts appealingly, and I am grumpy.
I think I am having trouble acclimating to the new apartment. I don't feel quite settled yet. The last apartment I lived in for 2 1/2 years -- the longest I've lived in any place since I was in high school. So there is an adjustment, even though the new place is bigger and better in every regard. (Except for the trash-loving hoboes...but that's another story). And there are still some things to put together, pictures to hang, etc. Tonight we are going on a giant shopping expedition to Bed Bath and Beyond.
Somedays I would like to be a large shrub, and stay rooted.
