Sooo Sleepy…

I am so sleepy right now. First of all, I did not get enough sleep last night. Second of all, I don’t have my car so I can’t go take a 2-hour nap in the student parking lot like I usually do on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. The worst part is that I have lab today, so I will be stuck here until around 3:30PM. On a Friday. That is why I suck. And tomorrow I have two or three babysitting jobs to do (I’m not sure yet), so I may be working back to back to back. One is an overnight one, but the kids go to sleep late (although hopefully they’re in bed when I get there at 10PM), so I’m not sure if I will get to sleep as soon as I get there. Yes, I sleep when I do overnight sitting jobs, LOL. Well, not all the time…but when I’m tired. That’s why I’m glad that I’m an easy waker. Or else I would stay awake the whole time and I would be grumpy by the time the parents come home.

My baby washed, oiled, and blow-dried my hair for me last night. Wasn’t that sweet? LOL. He’s the one who has my car now. I just remembered that I’m going to need to grab lunch, though, so he may just have to come back around noon. I left my purse in the car like the dumb@$$ I am. WOW!

Naughty Kids Say It’s Too Cold To Play At The Park

March 10, 2008   Filed Under: Babysitting, Pet Peeves   268 words

The kids I have been babysitting for the past two weeks decided that it was time to start giving me trouble. Since Thursday, they have been refusing to do homework and also crying about every little thing. They told me that I’m the worst babysitter because I never let them have any fun (making a tent with the bed sheets and tying a million things to the TV, door, and chest of drawers). I can’t believe they said that after all the cool places I took them!

Anyways, I decided to take them to the park so they could work out some of their hyperactivity. They said it was too cold to play once we got there. So I took them to the mall. One wants ice cream, and a large at that. I buy him a medium and he complains that it’s too little. I told him if he finishes it I’ll buy him another one. Half-way through the ice-cream, he decides that he can’t hold anymore. Ah-ha!

Then the girl decides that she wants to buy a toy. I say no and she starts grumbling. Then she devises a plan and tells me that if I let her get a toy, she’ll pick out a cute outfit for me that is just the right size. I ask how is she going to pay for the outfit and she says I’m going to pay for it, she’s just going to pick it out and make sure it’s really cute. I was surprised to hear such negotiation from a 4-year-old. I said no, anyway. Darn private school kids!

I’ve Been A Busy Bee!

I’ve been trying to keep myself busy. I won’t really have any free time until next week (Spring Break!). I’m taking exams for my online classes and finishing up with discussions so that I can get the best grade possible. I’ve also been doing test shoots and I will put up the pictures that I think look good. It will be at my sole discretion, LOL. The next thing that keeps me busy and motivates me to go to sleep early (darn…anyone who knows me knows that I try my best to stay up 24/7) is babysitting. Kids are wonderful. Go and have some now!

I can say that I do miss blogging. And also, we live in a messed up world. I’m not a pessimist, but certain events have taken place lately that has kinda put my “miss-ray-of-sunshine” act on hold. I’m usually the one to point out the bright side…the ever-feared spark of optimism. Now I’m the one who says, “Yeah, life sucks. Get over it.” I guess it’s still better than a view to hurt everyone who stumbles in my path or kill myself.

I want Orange Juice. I’m going to go drink some now.
