Twin Sister = Complete Awesomeness

So Twin Sister and I often email each other at work, if we're both in a relatively similar smart-ass-y mood, some pretty weird/funny-maybe-only-to-us comments are conveyed. It starts off slow, but it picks up. Hope you have as much fun reading this as we did avoiding our work (filing for me, national security for her).

Oh, and we call each other Pablo and Emilio.

It reads top to bottom:

We are going to start pics at 6pm at Newcastle Beach. And then you and Keith will start with us at 7. She said you guys can come with us at 6 in order to help, which I would love if you can manage (at least you).

That all sounds cew. And yes, we'll have the dogs. I had no idea it was going to be in the evening, that'll be loverly. What time do you think we'll be done? I have a karaoke night to attend, remember? I'm a very important person.

I would guess we'll be done around 8 or 830.

That sounds good. Wanna have lunch after your hair appt tomorrow? If you say no then I'll feel sorely neglected and terribly unappreciated, but I'll cover it up nicely by smiling like a psycho and pretending to bounce on a trampoline full of cats.

Wouldn't all the cats scratch up your panty hose flying around you like that?

Not exactly, (I don't know how "not exactly" would apply because it seems to me that if you're on a trampoline with a bunch of cats, everything is pretty "exact"), because I wouldn't be wearing pantyhose. I would be wearing jeggings. And I'm not sure if there are any test examples out there on the internets that would predict if 100 bouncing felines could scratch a pair of hideous jean print Spandex-pants.

Well you'd at least get a pretty bad case of the camel toe with something like "jeggings" I would gather. Anyhow, yes I'll have lunch with you. My appt is at 1145, so I would guess it takes at least two hours. Can you wait that long for lunch?

I'm not quite sure what you're implying, but this is what I heard:

Can you wait that long for lunch? = Are you sure that your fat a$$ can last until mid-afternoon to fill up two airplane seats-worth of restaurant booth and shove two pounds of raw beef down your gullet while rubbing your elbows in ranch dressing so you can lick it off later?

And the answer is yes. Yes I can wait that long.

I think.

Gross Pablo. Get your ears checked. That is not what I said. Your listening/hearing skills are in dire need of some professional help.

I think we're both missing the point. You can't "hear" an email.

I don't think you're understanding me. You can't HEAR an ema....screw it. Nevermind. Sometimes I think you look dumber than you really are.

That came out meaner than I had intended.

Okay, so THAT came out meaner than YOU intended. I understand. We all make mistakes.

P.S. Please don't stop emailing me today because I'm really really really bored and I think I might die if you don't make me laugh and I can honestly say I think we all want the opposite of that. *sad face*

A PERIOD OF ACTUALLY WORKING....

Your silence has clearly indicated that you do, indeed, want to me to die from boredom.

I'm going to the gym now because I'm very important and have lots of important stuff to do for important-er people.

I do apologize for your boredom, however, I am very busy and important as well. When you get back from your very important workout and important stuff with importanter people....give me a freakin important shout. I may or may not be willing/able to reply. :)

I just worked out for the FOURTH day this week (I know right? GET OUT OF TOWN) and I got back and I'm sitting at my desk and I have this REALLY sharp pain over my right eyebrow and it hurts SO BAD and it WON'T stop and now my eyelid is twitching and I just got on WebMD and I totally know what it is.

It's a tumor.

I hope you don't mind having a tumor-head in your extra-special photo shoot on Saturday.

You were always so compassionate. I suppose you're also against the School for Kids Who Can't Play Sports Good and Want to Use a Skip-It Good Too.

Man those things hurt when that huge-a$$ ball whacked your ankle.

Didn't hurt as bad once our brother cut the end with the ball off of it, huh?

Yah just like how choosing between playing in the kiddie pool or watching t.v. was such a huge dilemma until he and Mikey Lees ran over the pool with their bikes and cracked it.
Problem solved.

Well you had a little trouble with that 1.5 ft slide anyhow, as I recall. Problem solved for all of us. The ones having to save you from it (Mom) and the ones waiting in line behind you (me).
