Morning glory!

magidThis morning I walked out to the porch and found... a morning glory flower! There are theree other full ready-to-open (perhaps tomorrow?) buds, too. I'm pretty sure they weren't there yesterday.
The flower is a trumpet shape, deep purple, with slightly redder deep purple shot through it five times around the bloom. As it tapers, it pales, becoming pink, then white, in the small end, where the pistil/stamen come out. It's beautiful. I can't wait for more of them to open, to see a (partial) wall of flowers.
I saw an Arkansas license plate this morning. Their state motto is "The Natural State". Natural for what? And what does that make the rest of us?
Dear white van driver on the highway:
I'm glad you've discovered your turn signals. However, they are more effective if used before you change lanes.
Thank you.
I'm glad I went to the games afternoon; there were fun games, and it was good to see people (wave to everyone, all on LJ; how inevitable these days :-). I so wish I were designed to be more able to endure humidity, though. For the record: Chinese food smells good, whether I eat it or not.
Why schedule a meeting to teach me how to do the task I've been doing (competently, thank you) for weeks?
