Every time I go home or my sister comes here to visit me, I miss her that little bit more when she goes again. Waving her off on the train today actually made me well up! It's not like I'm not going to see her again for ages- I'm going home next weekend for Pete's sake! We just have such a good time together. It was such a giggle! Maybe it's just the fact that I've known her for 17 years and grown up with her that we are so much so on the same wavelength. I rarely find that nowadays. She comes out with some brilliant one liners sometimes. My favourite one recently was "Boys like me because I'm witty and titty!"
We can have serious conversations too. I like getting her perspective on things because she sees situations so much differently to me. She seems to have a very different world view.
The reason for her visit was for us to go and see Emmy the Great- a sweet voiced and cutesome folkie who writes poignant yet unusual lyrics. She was witty in her banter and her performance was faultless. She was very patient with the techies when they made numerous mistakes with the lighting, plunging the stage into darkness then flashing spot lights in her face, commenting "What's with the strobe? Is this the right gig?" and "Someone's going to have an epileptic fit soon!". Needless to say, I have a girl crush on her!
