I almost ordered it from Sutton's... It just seems to me that you
could find a better name for an iris, horned or otherwise, than
"blood-sucking serpent woman." Just my opinion. But then of course, if
I ever name an iris after my family's cat, who would want to buy "Cat
from Hell"???? (We just got back from the vet's office, folks, and she
is now an OFFICIAL candidate for SEDATION!) And yes, this post is being
made during school hours...I'm home sick, again. (And off-topic, as
well.)
