benefits of being leo.

given that i've been through 4 near deaths incidents- of which 2 involved near drownings, 1 involved an almost major car accident (if not for darn good breaks) and 1 near death-by-lightning-bolt incident- it's rather strange that i'm not born in the year of the tiger.

after all cats DO have 9 lives (as that idiom goes).

so i was sharing this puzzling thought with doris when the issue of birthdays and an assortment of topics about freak accidents and such came up.

i went home, prolly appearing very much a lucky fool for escaping death so many times. until when i laid silently in bed, watching time pass by quicker than i could fall asleep last night..

and it's suddenly donned upon me. ah the benefits of being Leo. :)
