So, we went to a fancy-dancy wedding this past Saturday, and in the program, there was a list of dates corresponding to a list of trees, and by finding your birthday you found what kind of tree you are, and therefore, what kind of person you are. Most trees corresponded with a week's worth of dates, but of course, because I'm very special, September 23 has its own tree. Here's what it said:
Olive Tree, The Wisdom
Loves sun, warmth and kind feelings, reasonable, balanced, avoids aggression and violence, tolerant, cheerful, calm, well-developed sense of justice, sensitive, empathic, free of jealousy, loves to read and the company of sophisticated people.
So, let's break it down:
Loves sun, warmth and kind feelings: EMPHATICALLY yes. So much. I'm so sad summer is over. Also, who doesn't love kind feelings?
Reasonable/balanced: I try to be. This is not always true, however.
Avoids aggression and violence: This is true. My ass kicking days are over. (This is the part where I pretend I once had ass kicking days.)
Tolerant: Mostly, except for ignorant douchebags.
Cheerful: I would say snarky rather than cheerful.
Calm: I can't even pretend this is true.
Well-developed sense of justice: Sure, I like when the bad guy gets what's coming to him. Or her.
Sensitive: Only when I haven't had enough sleep. Which is most of the time.
Empathic: I try to be. I think so.
Free of jealousy: I wish. But no.
Loves to read: Ha! This couldn't be more true. All of my birthday presents featured books. I'm a huge nerd!
Loves the company of sophisticated people: If those people make fart jokes, yes, I do love sophisticated people.
Go here to find out what kind of tree you are!

I love it! I am an Ash Tree, (although I can tell it's full of crap by the first two words) but still - fun! And yous is definitely true.
Ash Tree:
Uncommonly attractive, vivacious, impulsive, demanding, does not care for criticism, ambitious, intelligent, talented, likes to play with its fate, can be egoistic, very reliable and trustworthy, faithful and prudent lover, sometimes brains rule over heart, but takes partnership very serious.
this is fun! I'm going to click over right now, because I sure as HELL am not going to do any work right now!
