1. We are both built like tree stumps. You know, short, squat, and more or less square-shaped. We are as wide as we are tall. No one has ever accused us of being "lanky." As a matter of fact, Alex's college buddies used to call him T-Rex, because he has short little arms like his prehistoric namesake.
2. Alex and I have similar coloring. We are both naturally very white, and we turn pink when we "tan." We both have reddish hues to our dark blonde hair.
3. We both have large-and-in-charge noses. I once read that this is actually a desirable facial feature. It symbolizes wealth or prosperity or something great like that.
4. We both have straight, white teeth. This is simply because:
products of upper-middle-class families in the 1990s = lots of orthodonture.
5. And, apparently, we dress/accessorize alike ...
Example #1: It started with matching shoes for our wedding. We thought it was cute.
Example #2: We got tattoos together. Again, we thought it was sweet.
Example #4: Then we got matching bikes. This was more a product of wanting our new, expensive bikes to serve the same function (commuting, touring, road rides, Forest Park rides). At least they are different colors.
Example #4: By sheer accident, honestly, we got the same glasses. We just realized it today. I'm embarrased.
