The only thing "wrong" with my sister is it was like living with a 50s TV show character. She was valedictorian, homecoming queen, lettered in volleyball, track, band, choir, swing choir. There was a mural on the wall next to the administration office in the high school and she was in it giving her graduation speech. I don't recall ever having a major argument with her (she is the saint, not me). She is 4.5 years older than me and I had to go through the same HS and the teachers expected a lot out of me. Boy were they disappointed. I did well enough on tests that I knew just how much homework I could not do and still pass my classes. Later, as she applied for her CCW she was able to keep her group fist sized at 15 yards with all three handguns used for the class. She even preferred the .45ACP.
I used to think it sucked having a "perfect" sister. I now see how lucky I was.
