My Sister Loves Me This Much

Yea, it sounds a little bit like a cup or a t-shirt but I’m not entirely sure that she wouldn’t buy me one. My little sister simply idolizes me. How much?

  • Her favorite color is pink because my favorite color is pink.
  • I had my hair cut so she had her hair cut.
  • She plays games because I play them.
  • She borrows my stuffies because they smell like me.
  • And returns then when they stop smelling like me.
  • She texts/calls/IMs me multiple times a day.
  • She sobs every time we part from one another.
  • Her hugs never end.

Sure, it’s cute. It’s also a bit suffocating. My life is so hard.

Breaking Out Of My Comfort Zone

Last night (well, technically the night before by now), Ryan and I went to a WNBA (that’s women’s basketball for you!) game. It’s really not something we would have done had the opportunity not arisen (I got the tickets for free from a review network!) but I am glad we did. I have had a history of not trying new things because I get so nervous over being in unknown situations and not having control. I have been working through that, however, and try to remind myself that while the initial moments may be uncomfortable, that usually fades pretty quickly.

For instance, I didn’t know the layout of the venue but Ryan did and I was over my initial unease in 5 minutes (if it even took that long!). I thought about skipping out on the autograph session for that same reason but wound up going, anyway, and now my sister will have her very own Silver Stars t-shirt with an autograph! In the end, the perceived discomfort was far greater than the actual discomfort but I could have let that perception prevent me from doing something new. In hindsight, that’s a bad habit to develop.
