These are chrysanthemum petals on my toilet. Decorative, aren't they?
 
 
 
 
See that little vase of flowers in the corner of the sink there? There used to be petals on those stems. That vase of flowers has been there in one incarnation or the other since I was in the hospital. First they were pink carnations. Then a few days ago, my husband stuffed it with purple chrysanthemums. That vase used to be on top of the shelves that sit above my toilet.

What happens is that when I'm in the shower, I fling towels over the edge of the shower doors and they kept knocking the vase down. That's why the petals are on the toilet and why the vase is now on the sink. One day last week I peeled a petal off my butt about four hours after I last used the toilet. I wasn't saving it or anything. I just didn't know it was there until I went to scratch the itch it was making on my butt.

Cool toilet seat though, huh? I'll leave the petals there for the next person to marvel at. Stop and smell the flowers and everything.






Isn't this a beautiful picture? I didn't take it, though. A Real Photographer did. It's a shot of the Kiluea volcano, which has been continuously erupting since 1993. I don't know why, but it seems important.
