No , not that one, my other big sister. Today marks her 42nd year of life and in ten days we will mark about 20 years since I have seen her last. Her name, a potential appearance and SciFi’s Tin Man – which was really good– got me thinking. With the birth of my niece she would like for her own children, my other niece and nephew, to have cousins. Strange, she did not seem to think we were worthwhile sisters and brothers. Now, I speak a lot about no regrets and acknowledging all my choices have made me who I am, but I think even at 5, 8 and 9 years old we three may have used better judgement than our older and wiser sister of 15. A tough choice I know, but not for us. We stuck together and she went away. So for my long-lost other big sister, my choices have made me who I am, the youngest of three adorable (tee hee) children. Your choice left you alone , with all the attention you always wanted. Your regrets are not mine. So Happy Birthday, I hope your future is brighter than your past! We all did what we had to, some just made wiser choices.
On a less depressing and sour note, I ditched the rock like pillows ( accompanied by the shepardess- thanks!) and am sleeping like an angel…. which is the only angelic thing about me

It was my pleasure to accompany the fabulous Ms. Lane. Anytime you need a slave to carry your packages, don’t hesitate to call the lil’ midget in the cube behind me.
