My sister and I do strangely same things on a regular basis. It's embarrassing, really. Our husbands call us Bipsy and Bopsy. Annoying.
We frequently show up places wearing either the same outfits or the same but different outfits. We coach and play various sports together, and I can't tell you the number of times we've showed up at practice wearing the exact same outfit. Sometimes in different colors but sometimes the exact same. Our players have come to expect it and mock us accordingly.
Last night we had a family birthday party for our oldest children, and she showed up wearing the exact shirt I had on only in a different color. Beotch. Funny thing is that no one even made fun of us. That must mean we're getting predictable. To be on the safe side, we now call each other before going to any major event so we don't look like we coordinated our outfits. I'm sure they do the same.
Last month, I wrote a blog about what a complete nerd I was. On the exact same day she posted a blog about being a geek. I quickly commented on her blog that I had not read it before people naturally assumed I'd gotten my great idea from her.
Last week, I showed up at the local pub sporting a cute new top, and she informed me she already had it. Note to self: call Heather before buying cute new tops in the hopes that she already has it, and I can just borrow it from her (and forget to return it).
It's not always all bad being the younger sister (hey, if 2 random high school students assumed this then so be it). Sometimes, when I go into the local grocery store in the town over they think I'm her and just assume I'll be charging 'it' to the ranch. I'm thinking I could really take advantage of this situation. Groceries and diesel are pretty expensive........
