Lou: Oh geh do I act like that?? (referring to Anne Hathaway's
character's socieopathic tendencies.)
Sis: Well.... sometimes.
Lou: Gaaah!
Whatever. Don't care.
I won a cheap bottle of wine in a drawing contest at work. We were in a training session and had to draw a pic of someone in the room that inspires us. I drew an oil pastel portrait of my neighbor Souri. I chose her because I wanted to draw her striped nautical inspired shirt with the red sweater around her shoulders. I made her eyes purple for lack of a brown oil pastel. I think that was the winning choice. Why doesn't someone just hire me to draw on chalkboards and draw portraits in oil pastels??? I think I am better at these things than I am at filing and faxing and routing phone calls. I chose to follow a business path in college IN LOU OF an art path - didn't want to do the whole starving artist thing. But... now I'm starving anyway so I should've been an artist at least I'd be having more fun and my quirks would be due to my creativity - not my crazy.

You are not sociopathic! You just have sibling rivalry issues.
It's true.
Also, I bet you could make a killing if you spoke with an accent/feigned broken English and offered pastel drawings of tourists on the Mall with various DC things in the background. Our family was touristy once, remember.
