My goal is to be the Boring One


I offered to watch my friends 9 year old the other day.  The boys usually babysit for him but they were in school.

Me, "What does he like to do?"
Sam, "He likes Hide-and-Seek."
Me, "Well, I'm not doing that."
Sam, "He also like when we make up stories and he acts them out."
Me, "I'm not doing that either."
Sam,
Me,
Sam,
Me, "Can he figure out how to turn on the xbox?"
Sam, "Yes"
Me, "Good, that's settled."
Sam, "That's your whole plan?"
Me, "If he gets bored, he can read a book."
Sam, "Try to save alive until 12:30. We can take over then."

I'm the babysitter of last resort.  That's my whole plan.
