cocktail screensaver for cappie
i posted the ASTROTINI WALLPAPER for sign of capricorn a little while back and have been meaning to blog it.
the little goats in the photo are actually antique toys from the 30’s, 40’s and 50’s. i have a bunch of them stored in my attic, along with 700 other pieces of goat paraphernalia. These range from a goat cartoon newspaper clipping, to a handmade goat souvenir from guatemala, to a mcdonald’s happy meal goat toy, to a rare antique goat clock, and the list goes on and on and on.
yeah, i’m a nerd. i’ve been told… but in my defense, i started this collection when i was seven, in a typically capricornian campaign to convince my parents that i genuinely wanted a pet goat and was committed to the cause. it worked… they ended up sparing a meat goat in the throws of being auctioned off to the highest Greek for easter dinner, and the rarest and most special of friendships was born. i named my 2 week old white goat, Felicia, and i learned more from her than i have from most people. especially, the fact that goats are cool. hear that capricorns the world over – we goats are cool! unless you have a goat statue collection… then i believe you might be considered slightly uncool.
but here’s the weird part… all of this occurred before i even knew what a zodiac sign was. turns out i was a capricorn, so how weird is that?
