SisterToSister Episode 1: Halloween.

I have this little sister Birdie.  She is smart, and very funny.  Sometimes we text funny things.  We did today.  And I thought I'd share them on the internet.

 My sister, with her kitten, George Washington Carver Lucas Orwell Clooney Foreman Gershwin Michael etc.  He is a very impressive kitty.

Photographic evidence that she has always been cool.


Here's our textual exchange of the day:

Birdie: What should I be for Halloween?
Me: Sleepwalker Texas Ranger.  Or Christopher Robin Hood.
Birdie: What?
Me: Walker Texas Ranger in a nightgown--with belt buckle and cowboy boots.  Or some hybrid of Christopher Robin and Robin Hood.  That one is less thought through.
Birdie: I feel like you have been sitting on these hybrid costume ideas for a while.
Me: Well the Sleepwalker Texas Ranger one I've had for a month or two.  But I promise you I came up with Christopher Robin Hood today at work.
Birdie: I veto both ideas for myself, thereby leaving them for you.
Me: Why did you even ask for my help if you're going to pass on my brilliant ideas!?
Birdie: Wacky ideas.  I am looking for something a little more obvious.
Me: You are boring.
Birdie: Am not.
Me: Yes you are.  But that is okay.  We need boring people to invent new sandwiches.  Sandwiches are very important.
Birdie: I love sandwiches.
Me: I know you love sandwiches.  We all love sandwiches.  They are an integral part of our culture and economy.  You could dress up as a sandwich engineer.  Your pockets would be full of rulers and test tubes and slices of bologna. 
Birdie: Anna.  Anna.  You are very creative but not very helpful.

(It's true.  I'm not very helpful.) 

Tune in tomorrow for episode 2 of SisterToSister where we still fail to come up with a solid plan for Birdie's Halloween costume.
