Actually, there are two sets of twins in my family. My sisters Athena and Dee are also twins, but I think they're fraternal twins.

Mum likes to say 'everything always comes in twos' ... that's one of her little mantras. So, yeah, a twin brother with twin sisters: that's why I'm so weird.

There's far from the tree, and then there's me.

I'm several standard deviations from normal --- I guess that's why they call us unicorns.
