| my sister |
| i talked to my sister yesterday... she's in basic training right now... i dont realize how much i miss her until i talk to her... she's having a blast... throwing gernades, gas chambers, and shooting guns.. kinda a scary thought if you know my sister but she's loving it.. so much that she might enlist as active ... she's only in the reserves right now.. but i found something out yesterday that really scares me... her unit has a VERY high percentage of being shipped to Iraq... my mom told me and i didnt want to show that it scared me... i need to be strong for her...and my dad. this is my mom's .. well any mom's, worst nightmare. their baby could get shipped to war and never return. she's my sister.. and the only one i got.. i was watching A League of Their Own yesterday and it crazy how much the relationship between Kit and Dottie is so much like my sister and mine. I remember before we both even saw the movie people were comparing us to them. I, the oldest and the catcher, am much more focused on finding love and settling down for a family.. i even gave up softball, the love of my life, for someone who i thought had high potential for replacing that love. my sister on the other hand, a pitcher and younger, has this spirit about her ... she doesnt liek to be held down, she wants to go out and do something different... and the worst is that she always feels behind me. she's told me this.. she hate how our parents compare her to me.. but in all actuality.. they do the same thing to me.. my sister always felt that the spotlight was on me cept when it came to softball.. the spotlight would shift from me to her or vice versa... eventually it landed on her and stayed there after an amazing hit in the last game that i played...if you've seen the movie you know what im talking about... well anyways... i bawled my eyes out watching that last night... i miss her so much |

Don't worry about your sister. She'll be fine if she goes to Iraq. I know so many people there. All they do is sit around, drink and smoke. Pretty much what we do here in Wisconsin. Just hotter.
