So, I was out to dinner tonight with a new girlfriend (not that kind, guys) and she is addament about people and their signs. ‘What sign are you? well, that explains this and that’ and blah blah blah. I have no idea what any of it means, and all my life when someone pointed it out I barely took heed. One of my sisters, Courtney, follows the stars. and every once in a while I wil get a random phone call from Courtney in Hawaii warning me to stay alert or keep smiling because the stars are aligning either for or against me at the moment. All I can do is belive her. I won’t. because I am just not convinced the stars know who I am, but I casually take heed for at least fifteen minutes.
When I was in high school I read my horoscope everyday because it was on the same page as the comics in the newspaper. and sure enough, everyday it was relevant. but then.. they all were really. because they’re so general. according to the Shreveport Times, I could be a Cancer, Pisces, or Taurus and still have a great Tuesday balancing my checkbook. and the way I smoke cancer is looking just fine.
But my friend Amy is leaning on me in an Asian Fusion restaurant about who I should and should not see because of when they were born. or why things have or have not worked out with men because of when they were born….
seriously? people buy this? is there any truth to it? sounds fuckin impossible…
so then how does some new friend who barely knows me or the stories of my exes nail us all on the head? What is it about mid February that makes me play patient and coy with emotions? And why are Taurus addament or Cancer hot?
I put the sushi down and try to counter, but I cant. they were.
fuck.
fucking signs. it has to be bullshit. because you could Say anything and make it true. I am stubborn and patient and coy and blunt.
‘when I want to be’ is the key.

huh? maybe? any opinions out there?
