I've been hanging out with my brother for a stint before I head back to Oklahoma and he heads off to China. It was a much overdue visit and I had a good time.

Well, actually he was working most of the time and I pretty much just followed his roommate around San Francisco and then wondered around Berkeley by myself. I stepped on his roommate's feet often because I was so distracted by the locals, which I'm sure was pretty damn annoying of me.

That has always been my gig though, I excell at being the annoying little sister. And thankfully my brother is a kind, patient man, who hasn't tried to remedy my faults by seeking counsel from Ricki Lake just yet.
