The Good the Bad the Ugly (in other words- Siblings)
| 
Sep 28 17:27 UTC 1994 |
Ther eis an item in InBetween about, or at least there was one about, kin
er, kids and their parents. (in other words kin <grin>) But I would like
to discuss siblings in this item. Because not only to people have to deal
with their parents on a regular basis, but quite often siblings too. So,
do you love em, hate em or what?

My older sister, 20, is great. They tend to go downhill from there with
age, though. My younger brother is all right, and after that...

My sister I barely know. My brother likes to beat me up, and he's a marine
which makes it so much more painful.

all three of my brothers are really cool. the older two spoil me (they gave
me a gold and diomond necklace for graduation...yes it is real, but VERY
small!) the younger one lives with me, so it sorta like we co-exist, but thats
about it.

Well, I don't exactly hate any of my siblings... I have one older sister,
and two older brothers. My brothers and I get along much better now that
we hardly ever see each other. My sister and I are getting along better
too, now that we aren't living in the same house. My brother actually <gasp>
bought my lunch last time I saw him! <grin>

Wow... heh.
Actually my sis has cooked me dinner and bought me lunch more times than I can
count. She's really the best and I actaully feel bad we had all those sibbling
rivalry thingies going on while we were growing up.

My brother and I used to not get along very well, but lately we've ben
getting along quite well. I really haven't noticed any sibling rivalry in
the last few months, and probably longer.

kirk and i were the only ones with the rivalry, and that stopped years ago
it helps that i'm the baby, so that everyone is loder.

Everyone's older than me...err...until my sister showed up...this is a long
story. See the inbetween parents item for fun and profit, and details.

I get along decently w/my sibs. That is, I don't quite want to kill them. I
would settle for just moving them to Alaska. 'Course, the fact that all 5
of them are younger than me doesn't help...

Hmm. . .I am quite the youngest of my brother and sisters. My father's son and
daughter are 33 and 31, and my mother's daughter is 25. Which means I actually
sometimes have 2 fathers and three mothers. . .sometimes.

All my siblings are great....sometimes misguided and don't live in the real
world...but we all can't be perfect like me<arnster smiles}. My older and
younger sister (23, 16) need to stop that unless they're dating a guy, there
aren't a real person. My twin sister and I are somewhat alike...we live
in the real world (or as much as you can in college)....my younger brother
(9) is 9 and is just like me and it scares me....an intelligent competitor
that is athletic minded, without the athletic ability and an off-the-wall
sense of humor...I worry about him with that combination!

Yep, I'm a twin...it was the greatest thing for me growing up! I was so shy
and she carried me socially growing up.....I didn't even speak until I was
3 except to her in whispers and then she'd tell my parents!
My parents were really worried about me...until they figured out I was reading
to her at 3....that relived them that I wasn't developing slowly! She's at
Eastern Illinois University and is an elementary ed. major and is big into
Greek life there...she gets mad when I make fun of it because I find it to sbe
so fake! (Sorry this is so garbled...someone keeps writing me!)....it's a tough
comgination growing up because he'll want to be as athletic as his friends, but
he just doesn't have the ability (like me!)....it's tough to work harder than
everybody because you want it, but know in your mind that coaches rarely notice
unless you're good! Plus, having a weird sense of humor in a farm-town school
is not a good quality if you want to fit in.....it took me a long time to
figure out that there are other people with a strange sense of humor, and those
that could figure out where the hell I'm coming from on comments I make!

i think that is so cool!!!!!
my brotheres (23,25,27) are all a little different. kirk is from my moms
first marrige, and is a stock broker alcoholic, with his nipple pierced.
todd and mike are from my dad's first marrige. todd is a chef who lost his
licence for drunk driving, and lives in california. mike is a professional
student and hippie-freak who makes his own beer, and lives also in california.
(do you see a trend here?)
i love all of them dearly, although somethimes i just want to smack them
and say "grow up!!!!"
