Catching Elephant is a theme by Andy Taylor
“We’re Earth Signs.”
Last night I was getting wasted with Gaby and a bunch of her internet pals and one of the girls was cooing how she and a guy at the table got along so well because they were both Virgos.
“Oh, I’m a Capricorn,” I offered, half-shouting, half-slurring. “We get along, too. Capricorns and Virgos are both Earth Signs.”
After I said this twice, the girl leaned in and said, “Capricorn? I don’t know what that is. What are Capricorns?”
Meaning, she knew it was a Zodiac sign, but not the character attributes. So, I bit my lip and searched for the best way to describe myself and my fellow Capricorns.
“Hmmm…well, we’re really hard-working and ambitious. We’re very, um, goal oriented. Our goals are like way up here,” I moved my hand up as though it was an top of an invisible pyramid, “and it takes us a while to get there, but in the end we reach our goals. Some people say we’re boring, but we’re just like, driven.”
She nodded.
After she nodded I knew I should have just bluntly said, “Oh, basically we’re assholes.”
