Green Room - Week 7 - Day 3

On my way to pick up my marriage license!

What have you been up to - other than being out protesting that we will be letting Second Chancers into our borders at some point this season?

I would probably have asked her a thousand questions but hey, if it works for her, the more power to her, I guess? I knew there were still states where marrying your first cousin was legal, though. Not necessarily surprised Texas is one of them, either. :)

They didn't grow up together. Met at a family reunion or holiday of some kind (it was a long time ago) and took it from there.

She was a character, for sure.

My favorite story about her was her mom's birthday was late December, and one day she marched into the family room with a calendar and told everyone she was tired of sharing her birthday with the holidays and the baby Jesus, so she opened it and put her finger on a date and announced her new birthday to the group. :)

That's impressive. xD Most of my cousins (all four of them) are around my age/a little younger and I'm only in regular contact with one of them. The youngest is kiddo's age...

I could see something like this happening with my ex's family, tbh. Her dad was 1 of 15 so there were a looooot of cousins. She was 1 of 4 kids, herself. But I only met her extended her family a handful of times. :)

That's amazing. xD I think I'd get tired of that, too. :)
