I suck at being a Virgo. Outside of my curious love of office supplies and little small bowl and organizational systems …. okay maybe I don’t so much SUCK at being a Virgo. Really I am the product of what happens when Virgo meets ADD. I love plans, I love making detailed little plans. And then when I can’t follow them I freak out and feel like a failure.
