fraternal twins, you mean? The phrase kind of annoys me. Cos we're not brothers, and fraternal is probably based on the word brother somewhere along the line. I usually just say "we're not identical". lol.

we could get the same hair cut, but not the same hair--mine is darker. . . and frizzier >.< But it would definitely be more confusing--even with my hair being about 3 or 4 times as long as Katie's teachers get us mixed up. I guess they're just not looking. We say "Laura=long. L/L. Laura has long hair." but they don't seem to catch on. lol.

yeah, I don't have a lot of pictures of katie because she's usually the one with the camera. but my dad took this one. I have another black and white one of katie that I took.

I was always under the impression that paternal was the correct term for twins who aren't identical. *Shrugs* You two look almost the same to me... the hair's a bit different, and in that picture, you look taller, but otherwise you look almost the same to me.

If you wanted to drive people insane, go get both of your hair dyed bright purple, and chop it off into a pixie cut Only people who really know you could tell the difference.

Oh, and I just noticed your comment above about you having different colored eyes... go get colored contacts to fix that little problem

lol. . . I think we'd be better of just wearing prescription sunglasses--I don't think either of us wants to get contacts >.>

nope, I looked it up--definitely fraternal (and when I looked for fraternal twins in google, I found this nifty article: http://www.suite101.com/article.cfm/twins_multiples/58480)
Paternal is for like, the maternal and paternal sides of the family, I think.

lol! that'd be awesome! But my parents were so upset (well, kind of upset) by my brother bleaching his hair (although that might be because it looked really bad!) I don't think they'd like it if we did that. And I hate to make them unhappy.
