overheard

I was sitting in the cafe at the Art Gallery of WA this morning and I couldn't help but overhear the following conversation (no, really it was that loud) between two other cafe patrons having a meeting two tables over. They were having some kind of small talk before getting down to business. One's a blonde, the other's a brunette - this is no reflection on their intelligence - they were both seemed to be as silly as each other and it's just a way to distinguish the two women.

Blonde: Your birthday's at the end of this month, isn't it
Brunette: Yeah, yeah. That's right I'm a Scorpio.
Blonde: Wow, that must be why we get along so well, cos I'm an Aries.
Brunette: Really? Cos I've heard that Aries and Scorpios don't get along that well.
Blonde: Nah, cos Simon's a Scorpio too. And I said to him, 'You should meet her, she's kind of like me, but she's more like you!'

Mum and I shared a few amused looks between ourselves. It was our entertainment for the morning.
