Disturbing evidence that my grandmother might be related to my boyfriend

1. Both take their coffee black with an ice cube.

2. She spent some time in Alamogordo, New Mexico, while my grandfather was stationed at Holloman back in the ’50s; he was born in Alamogordo back in the ’70s.

3. She scolds me if my hair gets in my eyes or if my sleeve hems cover my hands; he scolds me when I chew my cuticles.

Okay, so maybe it’s a stretch. But I’m noting it here for when I inevitably find out that we are all, in fact, part of one big family.
