Default 'Black sheep'
There's a relative in every family, I think, that is a 'black sheep' and who you don't want anyone to know about, visit, or cross the street if you see him/her coming...do you want to share your story? If you have several, share them all...

Actually my youngest brother qualifies too. He is the only person on my mom's side of the family (21 people) who has dark hair and brown eyes. His now departed grandmother once made a remark: "What does that boy do here?!?", as he totally does not look like the rest of the family. He just looks a lot like his dad.

I have always been a bit of a rebel - creating and destroying a lot of traditions. I even gave the same grandmother her nickname when I was 3 or 4 years old. It stuck.

Also because non-local relationships are extremely uncommon in my family. Guess 9000 kilometres is not local anymore.

Do you want to adopt a caracat? That will take care of any sheep problem you may have .

I guess there are a couple on my side. My husband's side has more however. He was probably considered one at one time.

You need to attend one of our family reunions. I'm pretty sure that it'll make you wonder if that's actually true.
