Happy Birthday to Dave’s Brother Mark (and Dave)!

Dave and Mark, originally uploaded by shellgreenier.

So today is, as my Father-In-law likes to remind everyone, “his brother Mark’s birthday”. My FIL is a twin, so that makes it his birthday, too! Today also happens to be the day I am touching up scans of the family photos for GiGi with the Bear’s Christmas Quilt. So, in honor of the day I share with you some of my favorites…in all their Steven-King’s-The-Shining-esque” Glory…(joking but sometimes twins remind me of the hallway scene. And then there’s the image above and I get even more frightened)

Back when we use to give our kids everything AND the kitchen sink to show them we love them…instead of feeding neurotic consumer behavior and buying them plastic junk coated in lead. Sink Bathes say “I love you! Both of you. If I could remember which is which.”

See the little “D” and the little “M” on the pictures? That’s how they did it…they drew it on their diaper butts, too…or at least that’s what I would have done. Or I would have just given them the same name. It’s called risk management, no identity crisis here.

They Know Something I Don’t

Juniata is stalking me. They want alumni donations…

This is amazing, if you don’t know me, because I never legally changed my name to my new “married-ish” name. In fact, I never really got married, just married-ish. We are abstaining from such jibberish until it is legal for all (and we are in negotiation right now if the California ruling has made it “legal for all” which it might). Until then it’s just a transfer of property and whatev, my husband-ish tells me my dowry wasn’t big enough. Joking, we had a beautiful soul binding down in Key West on October 14, 2006…that and the whole “happy family” thing has us pretty well chained together for ETERNITY! I didn’t wear white…

Baptismal. My maid of honors threw me in the ocean…the dry cleaner looked at me like I was retarded bringing in a moldy, fish smelling dress.

yeah, we look young…and dirty. dirty hippies in the keys. look out.

Our bachelor party at Margaritaville…after the ceremony. But just to unjinx, we had our “divorce” party two months after we met, we figured getting it out of the way would be…refreshing.

S Brain: I have to do this…and this…and this…and this…GET UP!

S Body: Oh, how adorable! You really are to cute. I DON’T THINK SO!

I was out for the count yesterday. Driving back from a lunch meeting…2 hours away in Stuart made me think the “OMG, I’m dying” pain was from the drive…and then the icky “OMG, I’m Dying and I CAN’T SLEEP” thing started. Then the “OMG, I’m dying, I can’t sleep and someone poured a bucket of water over the entire bed” thing started. I am semi functioning today and trying to dig myself out of the day off. Not working.
