July 29, 2008 Astrology.
Fact or Fiction? I have no idea. I do not follow
it nor practice it and I can't even pretend to rattle of the signs off
my kids or husband. Terrible? Hmmm. I don't think so (shrugging
shoulders).
But recently a very good friend of mine that I love to pieces said something to me and got me all "OH MY GOD" I have to see what your talking about. (done in my totally bitchin valley girl lawng island accent while I twirl my hair).
Okay, lets begin. I am a Leo. Rawr. Born August 6th. (we are tip toeing around the ol' birthday this year).
I
went to about 375,432,432,243 different astrology sites, holy crap there
are a lot of them out there. And 98.75% of them were created back when
it was crazy cool to have flashing "buttons" and trailing mouse
arrows. I digress, so everyone of these sites basically say I am a
giving self centered bitch. That about summed it up.
I pushed on, trying to see exactly what my VBFF (virtual best friend forever folks, keep up) was talking about, I wanted to relate to it, I wanted to say, "I totally get what you are saying!!!"
And again, I just got disappointed because I could not relate to any of it, at all.
So I called my sister, "Hey Punk, do you think I am a typical Leo?" To where she quickly replies, "um, I have no fucking idea I am a beautiful Sagittarius". Perfect your a lot of help.
Then
I called my bff since third grade and was like "Stop whatcha
doin''cause I'm about to ruin the image and the style that ya used to..
ahhh do me baby, do the Humpty Hump"...
Okay, I did not really say that, but as I was writing this post that song by Digital Underground popped in my head.
I digress, AGAIN, so I ask best friend from third grade "Do you think I am a typical Leo?". And she quickly replies "What is a typical Leo?"ugh.
So
I rattle off "They are ambitious, courageous, dominate, strong willed,
positive, self-confident" and then I hear here say "Stop, you are none
of those". **uncomfortable laughter from me..
Okay, well what about " It's
quite common to see a Leo on stage or in Hollywood, since these folks
never shy away from the limelight." and I started to laugh out loud. I
can't tell you I hate the limelight. HATE. I thought I was going to
die recently when put into a sea of people I did not know.
Then
I found it folks!! I found exactly what it meant to me to be a Leo "They are sometimes very lazy, and,
like the cat, are fond of basking in the sun and dozing in the corner."
YES. YES that is me...
LAZY. SUPER sloth.
Dozing in the corner.
SUPERB! I take back everything I said VBFF.. I am a Leo. Hear me SNORE!!
See, now NO where in any Leo description was the word Dork. Or really
not funny. Which that last sentence was, and if I had a right mind I
would delete it.. but my mind is far from right these days. So hear me
snore made me chuckle to myself, and if it made me chuckle I am leaving
it. So keep it moving with the eye rolls.. that was a thigh slapper for me.
**I will never admit to drinking while creating this post. Make you own assumptions.
Here is something else that makes me chuckle.. Happy Tuesday folks!
One more thing, before you press play, the words to the song are:
Hannah had the hiccups,
Hic, Hic, Hic, Hic
All Hicups made Hannah feel quiet sick
Her Daddy didn't worry
He knew just what to do
To scare away the Hiccups
He simply had a
BOO!

Toooooooold you. I have something for you along this vein. I'll try to email it tomorrow.
That was too cute. And do care that I was knee slapping right there along with you! :)
Listening to the sound of the snore.............
Um. Here's what I can tell ya. Me? Totally a Sag/Scorpio child. My daughter? Totally a Leo. When I found out that she would be one, if she was born on time? I TOTALLY HOPED FOR AN EARLY DELIVERY.
I don't feel like that about you.
And I laughed at snore.
Snore Loud and Proud Sister! I'm a Taurus (the bull) and I don't know if I believe in that stuff. But I'm supposed to be hard headed, and I defintely am.
Kimmy, the Lioness, no, not a snore... OMG, you're too funny!!! Me, I'm a Libra. Apparently a totally social butterfly who cannot for the life of her make a decision (scales, weighing both sides, get it?).
I stopped following astrology once I found out through the Cosmo love guide that aside from the hot sex, me and my boyfriend at the time (now hubs) would never, ever work.
We'll just leave it at that and carry the conversation on over drinks some time ... ;)
I'm a Libra and yes I fit the mold! Loved the video...he's too cute!
~K
I'm a typical Cancer - moody, dramatic, loyal, needy, etc. I don't follow that stuff either but I am VERY much a Cancer.
PS
My boyfriend is quite the performer!!
OMG! You made me snort my pop!
And on a much more serious note - You just went up huge on my girl crush meter. You and my husband share the same birthday. (Why doesn't that surprise me?) ;)
I looked into that whole astronomy thing when I was much younger. I found it pretty interesting until it tried to tell me who I should and shouldn't hook up with! Hello? Both of my greatest loves were Leos!
I'm a bull, incidentally. Just in case you couldn't tell. **Rolls Eyes**
Too cute!
I never drink... (burp)...while blogging either.
I'm a dork, too, because "hear me snore!" cracked me up.
Ah, yes, astrology. I am a Taurus, and I am sooooo Taurus -- stubborn, domestic, like cozy things, loyal... I don't know what else. But everytime I read the descriptions, they are almost eerily accurate. You should try Chinese astrology too. They say I'm a dog. I'm also all that. *meh* whatever. I don't think it's all that important, but it is fun. Hic.
I never paid too much attention to astrology, but I do know I'm a Libra, whatever that means.
Haha Hear me SNORE!! lol. Bwhahahaah. And...I have no idea about astrology...I'm a virgo. Whatever that means. Once, I read that I should be careful riding in traffic or I'd get impaled by a stick. *knocks on wood*
don't eat too much candy. get with the program @ http://www.thedrunkcanuck.com
sports, girls, beer, good times with your mom.
my sister is a leo...a typical one...and i have a feeling that i'd like you a little more than her :)
i am an aries...ruler of the universe!!
xoxo
ha ha ha.
you seriously crack me up.
just dropping by to say hey. i hope to be back in business again soon! i miss you!! :] xoxo
He's AWESOME! And you're blessed :)
The only thing I know about Capricorns is that they are stubborn, and I am definitely stubborn. And totally laughing my butt off because, NO JOKE, I just taught the girls the Humpty Dance this morning!!
Oh and your boy is precious!
OMG! My daughter just watched that clip with me. He totally has an adoring fan now :)
Ok. Please excuse me while I go and search 875 astrology sites to see what being a Scorpio means. I'm guessing it ain't gonna be pretty!
kimmylyn that was funny stuff especially about the humpty hump. You're almost as random as me (although me blogging about mimes today is going to be pretty hard to top random wise) Have fun being a lazy leo but you can't be too lazy if you are jogging in circles.
Wow! Is that a yard? I've almost forgotten what those things are!
I love hearing your voice. So cool.
Being a dork is what makes us thirty-somethings so fun to each other.
I am pretty sure if you looked hard enough at those blinking sites that you would be able to find ANYTHING that you could relate to regarding yourself. I think Astrology is a joke, personally. but that is me.
KEEP BELIEVING
He is so stinking cute. I got to check out what a typical Cancer is and see how I rate.
Happy early birthday, by the way.
You make it cool to be a dork. Thank you Kim.
Hicky Hicky hicky Hic! Made Hannah feel like Sh*t.
Oh, that's just what I heard. He's such a little cutiepie.
You know your voice is exactly how I imagined it?! I'm awesome. I must be a psychic, or astrologer or something! (I swear I'm not drinking!)
Totally random... you and my daughter share a birthday! That is so cool!
Bribery! I love it! You're my kinda gal.
My fickle, indecisive gemini self puts zero stake in that stuff. (Except when I feel it really applies to what's going on in my life. Or I'm really very bored). <---See? Fickle.
You are the coolest dork I know ;-)
Your birthday is the day before mine :-)!! Happy fun stuff Leo sistah! I'm hitting a milestone this year.
I don't pay attention to the traits either, this makes me interested in looking it up, just for grins.
How cute!! I love Leos...my dad is a leo and I wished, hoped, conceived to plan for a birth in the leo days for my daughter. I'm like your sister - a saggitarius, sorry, but WE ARE really fab. The thing is, leos and sags get along famously because at core, we are fire signs.
