My siblings are cool. Maybe someday I'll figure out how to stop being the oldest sister, and be more like a peer. I feels like it is hard to do since I remember when they were each born, changed their diapers, taught them how to dance, taught them how to climb trees, beat them at every ATARI and Nintendo game we ever had, was always the mama bird in that bird game we played, helped them with their math homework, edited their essays, got them in trouble, got them out of trouble, broke down the cerfew barriers, "set a good example", softened up the parents so they could have it easier, gave each of them the "how to use a credit card (the right way)" and "what mom and dad didn't tell you about the real world" talks before they went to college, let one of them live with me for nearly a year, gave one a car (even if it turned out to be crappy), took another one on a pre-college scope-out of two colleges and co-signed student loans, etc. I love them, can't ya tell.
I dropped the egg count for a few days. 4 eggs today, 3 yesterday, and I forget how many before that.
