I don't think my family has any dull branches.

My aunt would be one, but she's agoraphobic and fairly OCD and an artist so all that combined leads to a nice mix of crazy.

Even if I had no kink in me, I'd still be an "interesting branch." It's not the kink that makes me who I am, just a part.

That being said, I am pretty boring in many ways!

hopefully, there will be no grand-replicants, or even great grand-replicants. this slave has encouraged her offspring NOT to contribute to the continuing overpopulation of the planet..there are a myriad of ways one can contribute positively to a wee ones life, without becoming a biological or adoptive parent, and there are MANY wee ones already here who could benefit from that positive interaction.

as far as the neices/nephews are concerned, their parents are very strictly wrapped up in a religious dogma that has no room in it for this slave...they don't want them to get to "know" their aunt.

c'est la vie.

I took jason with me to a family Thanksgiving, where the adults new of our relationship. I had him helping in all sorts of ways. By the end, my aunts were all saying, "Where can I get one of those?" I don't think I'm the dull branch. LOL

What an interesting idea!

My Great-Aunt Jessie will probably always be the fieriest branch of our family. She is famed, or infamed? (and keep in mind this was in the early thirties, women did not behave this way) for having walked in on her philandering husband in flagrante dilecto and then shooting him in the ass as he tried to escape out the window.

I really doubt I have it in me to live up to Aunt Jessie!

What an interesting topic for today!

From a vanilla aspect, i would never be considered the dull branch, esp. since my 40th birthday when i broke free of the steriotype i had become :-) i have become a true bohemian in all avenues of my life to my siblings, friends and cousins still entrenched in society's norm. my nephews and neices fondly refer to me as "crazy aunt j----" because i always have something wild to tell them and my hair is usually orbiting my head!

But your question makes me think, would they ever know all of me and understand the choices i have made invisible to most of the outside world that have affected me so profoundly in my growth? Will my own sapling look at my life after i am gone and comprehend the beauty that was my life in ALL its' entirety? Maybe it is only ego wanting to recognised and remembered as being the unforgettable branch but it doesn't make it less desirable :-)

To my neighbors and work acquaintances i must seem the actual definition of DULL. my loved ones know better. my grandson knows me as the one who will crawl on all fours in the middle of the mall because we are pretending to be kitty-kats or dance in the aisle of the local family restaurant just because we like that song. my biologicals have been threatened that if they violate my wishes and have me buried instead of donating my cadaver to the local teaching hospital, they are required to line the grave with whoopie cushions before lowering the casket and to install a motion-activated sound recording of me making inappropriate remarks from my gravesite.

I was having a conversation with a friend about her great-grandmother. She said she was glad her g-grandmother wasn't DULL. I got to thinking about that. When my great-grandchildren start doing their family tree, I wonder if they'll realize how not dull I really am. Or will this part of my life disappear and all they'll know about will be the dull parts of my life?

Anyone else ever wonder if you will be the dull branch in your family tree?

"They say there's no truth without secrets." — Mamoru Oshii's Ghost In The Shell

I tend to be curious about those who appear consistently uninteresting. Is what is shown on the surface an accurate reflection of what lies within? So often it is unwise to think so. Speaking in terms of human politics, image is everything, and you should guard your reputation with your life. This more often than not involves secrecy.

It is my experience secrecy can make things sweeter; when you reveal too much about something, it is as if you steal the force of its spring. Savor your underworld—let its mystery put a smile on your inner face. Of course, this is not to say you should not cultivate a healthy mystique and curiosity about you; keeping others guessing can be a fun pastime.

Ladies and gents, I have spent the last 5 years cultivating a solid dull life, lol. I've had enough "interesting" experiences to last a zillion years!

Give me a placid noneventful homelife, with boring hobbies, yes, please. <g>
