Sibling rivalry

My sister and I are generally supportive of each other, but every now and then we fall into that familiar sibling rivalry, here, we attempt to out neurotic each other:

Me: My husband's boss' home was broken into last night-- while he was home!

Sister: That's scary. We sleep with one baseball bat on either side of our beds.

Me: Really? That's pretty neurotic, especially considering your condo is on the third floor.

Sister: Eh, I sleep better that way.

Me: What if you have a nightmare and while in your sleep you grab the bat and hit your husband in the face?

Sister: Wow, now that's pretty neurotic. You think I'm going to sleep walk and beat my husband.
