i had to share a room w/ both my sisters... and my bro got his own room. SO not fair. i dont care if its the law, it was awful! and moi, there are days wen i could cheerfully bash my youngest sister's face into the wall. being the oldest, my sisters both drive me nuts... and my brother... has as dirty a mind as i. which is a bad thing, as he's 6 yrs younger >< ALL my fault there ^^

You gals are a hoot! I wish I had had a sister.
I'll give you mine! She's 10... and the one whose face I would gladly smash into the wall. *smiles serenly* A nice, hard, cement wall. And running her over with a car would be nice too... But I wouldn't do that. *sigh* I'm not into breaking the law. And lucky for her, murder is against the law. ^^ I love her dearly and all, but she's such a ... *insert swear word here*
LOL She's FAR too young to be my child at this point. My youngest is nigh unto 16. I have 3 grandsons as well.
*sigh* I meant you could have her as a sister... lol ^^ want her as a granddaughter? ... actually... my mom got mad at me last time i tried to get rid of her. ^^
I can't imagine why your mom would get upset.
Hi Toli! =)Glad you still all love your siblings even if they drive you crazy sometimes.
I offered to let my friend who thinks my brother is "cute" to adopt my brother for free, and we had him smuggled into her car and everything before my mom came out screaming at us.Drat her.
Yeah, we always just stayed as far away from our talking mothers as possible so that way we could play longer. Otherwise, if they saw us they'd go "Oh, we'd better get going." :)

Total word count for week #11: 1519*cringe* Didn't do so good this week. Okay Elaine, WRITE!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Well, it seems the big "in" thing to do in this group is to come up with what our cubicles look like. Somehow, I don't think that any cubicle would possible look like the ones I've seen on here, but that's what the imagination is for, right?Okay, so I've picked out my GoodReads writing space:
What's great about this room:
Big comfy armchairs to read and write in
A grand piano *sigh*
A TV to "chill" in front of
Plenty of inspiring decorations
I also had to pick out a laptop as I do most of my writing on the computer. I couldn't decide which one, so I got two. =)

<---Because it's just cool!
and
<---To continue with my Peacock theme.
So...what do you all think?
I know!!!!! =D I really like my room! *is sad that it's only fictional*
Thanks Cat! Yes, it's very, um, unique! =)*mutters to selt* Wish I had a laptop...
