Mad

Sometimes I wonder why I was so desperate for a sibling. Really, what good are they? My sister steals my bathtowel, never shuts up, and likes to regularly point out that despite my own height, she is now taller than me. On a couple of memorable occasions she even woke me by blowing a recorder in my ear. Really, I must have been mentally unbalanced to want a sister.

What’s lil sis done now? Well, a few months ago I bought an MIB Queen Amidala doll. I desperately wanted to open it, but what about the MIB factor? I compromised; lil sis lent me her digital camera so I could take unopened and half-opened photographs. There. Compromise. Lil sis promised that when she next downloaded her photos to PC I could save mine and transfer them to my computer.

Just asked lil sis when I’m going to get those photos, only to have her tell me that she ‘didn’t have enough room’ and so happily deleted them without my permission, nevermind the promises she made about making sure nothing happened to them.
“Well, you can always take more,” she said dismissively, conveniently forgetting the reason why I wanted the photos in the first place.

I believe that my reply was heard three blocks away.

    Is it the 12 inch doll? I have a Darth Vader one like that.

    Sorry that you now have to take the pics over again. [When you are trying to keep Amidalla in mint condition. :P]

    Hey, what do you mean by MIB?

    Oh… I think I just guessed it. MIB == Mint, in box.

    I think “three blocks away” would be a good name for a rock band.
