Oh, Horoscope

So, traditionally, I'm a pretty big fan of my horoscope...not that I do much digging into the history behind my sign and what it all means as a part of the universe...just that I'm a Leo and I fit most of the stereotypical Leo characteristics:

Leo rules the Zodiac with style. Born leaders and entertainers, they’re powerful, charismatic and exhibit grace under fire. While a Leo’s strength may be overbearing for some, they also have the “heart of a lion.”

 

Leo in a Nutshell
Born: July 23 – August 22

Element: Fire – active and ardent
Quality: Fixed, the quality that signifies a resistance to change

Symbol: The Lion

Lucky Day: Sunday

Lucky Number: 8 and 9

Special Color: Gold and yellow, the color of the sun

Leo Traits: Powerful, creative, arrogant, intolerant, warm-hearted, opinionated

 

Typically, I fit this description just about right on...but then I think about other Leos I know.  Some of my favorite friends are fellow Leos...but then there's this extremely strange guy that I used to work with. We not only share the same sign, but the same birthday...so I was thinking, if that's his sign too, how's he such a strange bird?  Maybe he's got a different Chinese symbol since he's 30 years older than me.  He must read his horoscope and think , wow, that is not me. Maybe thats why he's so weird, because his personality doesn't match his horoscope at all and he's constantly confused about his place in the universe.

Merry New Year!

Another NYE has come and gone.  Only a month and a half until Valentines Day! Both so damn couple-centric...and my holiday nemesis.  I hate these 2 days, I know, surprise surprise. 

You'll be happy to hear that I made it thru last night with only a medium sized goose egg on my head from a minor altercation with an ill placed vanity.  No, you're not getting details. Yes. It hurts, and has definitely hindered the relationship with my couch.
