What exactly am I reinterpreting? This is what I was taught in my Catholic school and Catholic upbringing.
Some of the more old school folks take the literal approach to Original Sin - that Adam and Eve ate an apple and we literally inherited their sin genetically. And that's fine too.
Doesn't matter whether you take the literal approach or not, the take away point is that as human beings we all have an inherent tendency to sin, aka original sin.
Your interpretation of original sin is Biblical, but the Catholic church does not have that view, even though you are a Catholic.
