Y’all come meet my twin
-he adopted a cat named Luna with his ex which then became his cat. He was a self-identified “cat person” but horribly allergic for most of his life (also allergic to dogs, trees, grass, pollen, dust, mold…..) In high school he started getting allergy shots to counteract this so he could finally achieve his dream of snuggling cats.
-He had a little scar on his wrist from where a heat lamp was left on him in the NICU (we should have sued, smh.) We were both hella preemie and in the NICU for a while, but him much longer than me, because he was a fragile delicate little flower (unlike me, who is very tough and cool.) He was also supposed to be born first, but then I shoved him out of the way at the last second. I was an only child for 46 whole blissful minutes before his pokey ass finally joined me.
-He fucking loved bonfires. He was a boyscout for, like, eight years, and would often have bonfires out in the backyard once we moved out into the woods in 2020. (Before, when we lived in the city, he’d have bonfires with his friends out in the woodsy part of the local park and they’d all run for it when the cops showed up.)
-He was a stoner in high school lmao and sold weed. Never shared with me (dickhead) but mostly stopped smoking once our dad got sick because there couldn’t be smoke in our house when his lungs were so fucked.
-Loved loved loved cars. Loved driving. Loved working on and fixing cars. Would regularly buy old fucked up cars and then figure out how to fix them and then sell them for a profit as a “side hustle”/hobby. Almost entirely self-taught. Was the type of person who would consider you passing him on the highway a personal slight and challenge (what a moron) and then start insulting whatever car you were driving (because he could recognize the make/model/year of almost any car on sight) (“You’re gonna pass me? Seriously? In a fucking 2005 Ford Escape? Are you kidding me? Do you know how you look right now—“)
-Dumb stupid idiot. I loved him very much. I love him very much.
