You can't have my band name.
Thursday, October 7, 2010 at 6:30AM I know I'm not the only one who goes through life randomly thinking, "That would make a great band name!" when certain phrases appear.
In college, my friend James had a package of pita bread spontaneously fall off a shelf. He then declared that the new band name on his list was "Suicidal Pitas". We still laugh about it, even though it's probably only funny to us.
If you're on Facebook, you know how it now randomly posts older pictures in the top right corner. On the hubby's page, it recently posted a picture of me with my nephew, TJ (my sister's son), from my bridal shower.
The hubby saw the picture quickly and got confused. "Wait, isn't that the bridal shower? Why is Nate there? Wait, that's not Nate..."
Nate and his cousin TJ look enough alike that at certain angles, a quick glance at pictures of them at the same age can be confusing (Nate's not quite 5 months old yet while TJ is now two and a half years old).
This isn't surprising, though, because the genes in my family are really strong. All the boys look similar as babies - blond hair, blue eyes, big round cheeks, cute button nose. Nate bucks the trend a bit with his brown hair, though (which I adore - what's more handsome than a man with brown hair and blue eyes?).
But I realized, then, that there was one exception: the ears. Nate has the hubby's ears (so much so that it was laughable in the beginning, they're that identical) and my sister's kids have the ears from her husband's family.
So our genes are strong, except for the ears. Those, it seems, are recessive.
And that is my new band name: Recessive Ears.
funny, things that make me laugh in Funny, family
