I didn't mention this earlier because I didn't want to confuse any noobs who might want to try the color prompt, but I've found on OpenBSD, if you use an ascii code for blinking you can make the pwd blink then close the blink with an ascii code and begin the code I posted above to set the color. you can even combine the blink with a red color and close both of them, before you apply the blue color. Trick is, don't close the blue color and all the text afterwards will be blue. I think I've implemented a short shell script to apply blue ( you can make simple shell scripts to apply any color ) if you lose that color for some reason. But "blinking" is kinda cool, but WAY too distracting for me.
