Sidewalk Oracle – How We Name

 

Don’t you think it’s kind of weird that we name plants for ethnic stuff, like this Turk’s Cap or Indian Blanket, African Violet, or Spaniard Grass. ⁠

Or, we go on to the ‘cute’ names like Bunny Ears, String of Pearls, Christmas Cheer, Angel Wing, Busy Lizzie, and Donkey’s Tail.⁠

In my next life I want to be a namer. I want to get the job of giving names to streets, constellations, flowers, animals , craters on the moon . . . you name it. And . . . . . . ⁠

On a totally unrelated note – tonight is the meeting of the San Diego Cartomancers. If you live locally, DM me for location and time. ⁠
