See … I AM witty

31 Aug

I can be a little OCD about things.

Okay, okay.

I can be a lot OCD about things … one of which is my overwhelming need to carry anti-bacterial hand gel with me at all times.  Why? Because … well … ye just never know when you might need a big glob of it, right?  Maybe after you’ve manhandled a shopping cart at the store or a petrol pump or even shaking hands with some folk you’re not quite sure about.

Anyway, a couple of weeks ago, I was at the mall with the family and was dragged  in to Bath & Body Works, a store that is like a mecca for worshippers of anti-bacterial hand gel.  I did kinda stock up on my favourites before I left for the UK last year.  And, if I thought the store carried enough scents back then, I was clearly mistaken because I saw they had easily quadrupled their stocks when I stepped before the giant wall of the smelly stuff.

At first, I wasn’t sure quite which scent to go for.  Did I mention that I tend to get overwhelmed by such simple decisions?

Indecisive me?

Not much.

But, then I spied this little number and I was sold …

I was all HELLS YEAH.

That’s me.

I’m a virgo.

And, I’m witty.  Not to mention a perfectionist, reliable and helpful. *coughs*

I shall have you my smelly, little fiend.

Ye see, I don’t like to brag.  In fact, I’m really quite modest when alls said and done, but I am quite possibly the funniest person you’ll ever meet.  What?  I am.  At least when I want to be.  And, I’m most definitely the funniest person in my family … a point I’ve been trying to argue for years.

Clearly Bath  & Body Works agrees.  They recognise my awesome sense of humour and how I just can’t help it because it’s a Virgo trait … a burden I must bear simply because of the date I was born on.

*sigh*

I’m not so sure my family feels the same way though.

Oh, I do crack myself up sometimes.  The wit … it’s a gift.

==================

This post is a shout out to all my fellow Virgo friends … may the wit be with you and all that.

    If Bath and Body Works says so, it must be true. Now I gotta go check out what they say about Libras. I guess I can’t be witty.

    See, I just knew there was something about Virgo’s that I couldn’t put my finger on! Very witty! BTW, I love Bath and Body works for antibacterial hand gel. Just looked up what it said for Pisces…not sure if I agree with it all….

    LOL! I’m noble, expressive, bossy and generous!
    Oh, and they really do have an overwhelming range of scents!

    Obviously you’re hilarious…. but I think you’ll find that the ‘Leo’ hand gel states “By far the funniest star sign, Virgos come close on a good day” ;)
