In a recent journal entry, I wanted to write "Mary and I both turn 65 next year, me in January, she in December."
But there's some grammatical dissonance there, isn't there? "Me" and "she" can't both be right. But "I in January" sounds hopelessly stilted, and "her in December" just sounds ignorant. What's the answer?
