Sometimes when you find something you didn't really realize you were looking for, you just don't know how to react.

I have a sister, so I know-that relationship, it's all about fairness: you want your sibling to have exactly what you have-the same amount of toys, the same number of meatballs on your spaghetti, the same share of love.
