I did not normally have such long conversations with my baby sister, but talking with her that night was the only way I could mask the amorous sounds of our parents in the next room.

When I found out about my father's serial infidelity my first thought was a hope that I might have brothers or sisters somewhere.
My brother seemed surprised and disappointed when my reaction to his coming-out confession was, "Oh, okay."
He used to call me "Juice-Juice" because "Alyssa" was too hard to say and it was his favorite drink.
We told my older sister that if she had wanted to decorate the tree with us, then she she should have gone to community college.
My sister was obsessed with Ricky Martin until she had a dream that he stabbed and killed me.
We held up our mother like lonely shelved encyclopedias.
It's hard lying to the parents who raised you to be an honest man, even for the sake of your little sister.
Tomorrow I'll celebrate my mother's anniversary while my long lost uncle, her brother, gets deployed to Afghanistan.
Our father's favourite game of deserting us in public places strengthened our sibling bond.
I just found my brother's profile on Yahoo! personals (and he lied about his age).
All those years of play-threatening her with the kitchen knives sent her into therapy and the entire time I thought she knew I was kidding!
Luckily his brother didn't pick the lock until after we were getting dressed.
Am I bad person because when my schizophrenic brother (who believes he is Jesus) asked me how I thought it felt to die on the cross, I responded with, "Um, it hurt?"
Five years and an engagement ring later, my brother forgave his ex-best-friend for hitting on his little sister.
