Keeping Up With the Stoneses (and Steinses)

I love my family so.

My little (6 feet, 177 inches) brother Nate 1000 recently started sending us phone pics of what he's working on and inquiring what we're up to. It's a really fun little thing and makes me very happy to hear / see from everybody.

Recent examples:

Nate 1000, brother:

"Hello again, relatives. Your update for today: my roommates and I watched two TVs at once. Our current favorite: making our own commentary for Discovery's 'destroyed in seconds' haha"

Matthew, brother:

"Yo. I'm on a plane to north carolina. Wow. My life is glamorous. Tonight I get to go to an nhl hockey game for the first time."



Todd, brother Matthew's partner:

"At a photog friend's slide show in rural Virginia."



Kate, formerly Ajay, nee Annet (sister):

"New york times in a mess all around me, reading"

Mama and Uncle Natey (stepfather), sans pic:

"Finished barbecue. Ate same."

Me:

"Paying preposterous power bill and watching Lidia's Italy cooking show on PBS."



Lovely Wife Sara's phone is 17 years old, so no pics.

Don't know if brother Jason (recovering quasi-neo-Luddite) has a camera on his phone or not. Remind me to bug him about it.

Pretty sure Father and Stepmother don't have photo phones.

Anyway, yet another reason to love the hell out of my relatives.

Smooches,

b

Whoops

I stand corrected on my last entry.

Says brother Jason:

"Of course I know how to use my phone."



As you can see in the photo, he is also a Master of Sarcasm.
