Tonight.

I hate Saturday nights when your parents leave and make you stay home to babysit their children. When you get 4 hours of sleep the night before because you were partying with friends until early morning. When a way cute boy calls you and invites you to go to a college basketball game with him & you have to say no, because you are tending obnoxious kids. When you really really want to hang out with that boy who called but instead are home cooking dinner for your little brother and sister and their 2 friends. When for entertainment you decide to practice piano. When you can't even take a nap because your mom is making you sew a quilt you promised her you would have completed 2 weeks ago. (Oops) When you are updating your blog instead of hanging with friends. When you are passed the point of torture. Wow. That sounds just like Tonight. Haha. What a bummer. :)

What a bummer! Sad. I am sorry you had to miss the game, I remember those days, Oh the joys of babysitting! You need to come to work today, we haven't chatted for a long time.

FLASHBACKS!!! AHH! Stop it! But I'm quite sorry. You missed a good game...not to rub it in or anything. :) But I have been there, done that. And let me tell you, just when you never think it will end... it does. And then you might even miss the little squirts. Sad I won't see you today! :( Stupid snow.

I remember those days too!Except it was my darling little sister I was babysitting and she made sure there was never a dull moment with her relentless teasing. ;) Ann is right, it will end sooner than you think and you just might miss it. That is very nice of you though and I'm sorry you had to miss a hot date!
