I guess babysitting was okay yesterday. B showed up at noon and the kids, Braden and Taelin (idk how to spell the girl's name). The boy, Braden, is 3 and the girl is 1. They were actually really good all day. The played with the animals here, then B took us to the arcade at her work but we were only there for 15 minutes because the games were a little intense for them. Afterwards, we went to McDonald's so they could go in the playplace. Before we went back to Becky's apartment, we stopped at the park at the Library and Braden ran into the stream (or what's left of it, anyway). It was pretty funny, actually, because he tore his clothes off and wandered around in his underwear. XD

We spent the rest of the night at B's apartment where they had to try EVERYTHING. The little boy wanted to play video games, so we set up one for him but he only has computer games so he doesn't know how to use a joystick apparently because he just held it in one direction for over 20 minutes on Mario Kart. Whatever. Their mom kept calling and saying we could keep them longer and longer until it was after 9 so B took them home by herself so I could do her laundry.

Omg, Late Night with Conan O'Brien last night was HILARIOUS!! He had the youngest zoologist or something on their (Jarod something...?) and the animals were being naughty! The tiger ripped big holes in the couch, and then they brough out an owl and it flew past Conan's head! It was freaking hilarious because he jumped out of his chair and was running around. Conan is the best! Screw Letterman and Jay Leno! Oh, and at one point the guy brought out an alligator and was sitting on it and asked Conan to help, so Conan sat on the guy instead. Lol! I was laughing histerically the whole time, seriously.

Really bored...I'm listening to Dido's "Sand in My Shoes" right now...such a relaxing song. I hate Dido. This is weird. I'll go now.

Omg I remembered I saw the funniest comic ever...so I went and found it! HUZZAH! I ♥ pearls before swine... I thought this one was SOOO funny that I cut it out and put it on our fridge. XD (Stephen Pastis is the writer of the comic)
