Well I marked this one solved on the ID forum. It must be the Blue Star Creeper, Laurentia fluviatilis. The only thing is my flowers seem to be a bit deformed. The blooms have the requisite number and shape of petals, but they are not arranged in a uniform shape the way other pictures (I found on Google) portray this flower. The petals seem to have a gap... see the pic.

Kind of odd, maybe they are growing this way b/c they are on a steep slope, almost as if planted on a wall of soil (in my case, clay).

Thanks ecrane3, you win!
