I just found out that I'm not a dog like I thought I was -- in Chinese Year terms anyway. Apparently, since Chinese New Year didn't happen till January 25th in 1982, I'm stuck in the previous year's animal, metal rooster.
That's kinda weird.

It really amuses me to be an Iron Cock. It's especially amusing to say so at parties, though I have to be careful about which parties I say it at.
