Involving babysitting and shredded wheat.2:43 p.m. - 2002-05-30
Well, another glorius day after another not-enough-sleep-filled morning (not night, since I didn't go to bed till 6 am).
I'm eating shredded wheat. Because I'm such a healthy girl. Yep. With bananas. I don't understand how they sell shredded wheat. Sure, I bought some, but that was like a year ago (they keep them in little packs of 3), and I really don't like them at all. I can tolerate them with bananas. So how on earth do they get any kind of profit from shredded wheat? Maybe lots of old people buy it to keep "regular". Maybe lots of pseudo healthy people like me buy it to feel good about themselves, eat 2 biscuits and never touch it again, then a few monthes later feel guilty and buy another "fresh" box (even though age has not changed the taste, trust me). But thats a lot of guilty pseudo-healthy's. And a lot of old people who don't use metimucil.
I'm going over to my friends house in a couple of weeks to watch the kids (her mom does home day care) while her father takes them to the airport (she and her mother are going on a cruise). I'm kinda nervous about it. Its been a LONG time since I babysat, and it sounds like I'm gonna be swamped with children. Some kids I haven't seen since they were 8 or 9 are going to be there (they are 11 or 12 now), and its going to be weird to see them all again. God, I hope they don't try to make me play Red Rover. I hate that game. I always feel like I'm going to crush one of the little kids, and its just nervewracking.
Hey, my shredded wheat is getting really soggy. Tastes a bit better.
You know, I can't believe I have typed this long about nothing. Shredded wheat and babysitting. What delightful fun. Well, I'm going to go take a shower.
