A cup of coffee and a very obliging colleague were all that were needed to break my heart today afternoon.
So, my colleague has an 8-year old son and she was talking about what a handful he is. “You have no clue Kavitha. He has such a bad temper and he shows it all on me,” she said. I just nodded my head in empathetic acquiescence having no inkling to what she was about to say next.
It was then that she dropped the bombshell. “He is a Leo, you know. An August born Leo. An August 15th born Leo. You can imagine.”
Ah well, dear colleague. It is not a funny sight imagining my mom saying those exact same words about me elsewhere.

And you displayed such remarkable restraint by letting her get away with such a statement. Hopefully the little boy will grow up to be as generous :P
Aargh! You too :(
I have always been such a "peaceful" and "peace-loving" kid!
@Kavi: Wats ur definition of peace? I feel you have mistaken it for something else..
Piece loving?
Hehehehe.
Imagine the statements about Scorpios.
And I refuse to believe that you did not spill coffee on her after that :D
u need to introduce ur colleague to ur mom and us! we'll maker her life a lil easier :P
Many thanks people, for painting this pretty picture of me. The Leo in me is grateful to all of you!
@Georgy: Uff! How many of you Scorpios have I had to handle in life :P
In place of "Peace-loving", allow me to reccommend "Harmless Herbivore" :)
Leo is a fiercely loyal friend, a just but powerful enemy, creative and original, strong and vital-whether he's a quiet or a flamboyant lion, for there are both kinds. He dresses in glorious raiment, appropriate to his colorful personality. We overlook his arrogance, his sometimes insufferable ego, his rather ridiculous spells of vanity and laziness, because his heart, like his metal, is pure gold. -- Linda Goodman
I rest my case!
PS: VJ, I loved your comment and Kavitha, your response to that!
@Mri: Thanks for the support darling
@Arvind: I knew I can always count on a fellow Leo for support!
