French Toast Anyone?
NO?
GOOD! BEcause I can't seem to make it! Well for one thing this skillet I have burns easily. Well not really burn but food sticks to it easily. It cleans up easy, but it's hell cooking like EGGS. Then I think I have the wrong bread. All I have is pumpernickel, the skinny slices. Yea, didn't work out well. I think I'll buy the pre-made french toast. Not that I need it, but it's nice to have once in a while and I'm craving waffles/french toast/pancakes for some reason. Must be the carbs. At least it's not MEAT. I think I need a good skillet though.
And I have a situation I thought I'd share. So any input would be helpful. I know some of you have children. I'm going to assume some of you partake in babysitting services. Well I don't mind babysitting my niece but I've had serious issues with my sister not being respectful. FOr instance, she thinks that she can go out all night and not return until the morning when she says she will be back to pick her daughter up at midnight or so. That's happened twice. So I"m VERY RELUCTANT to babysit for her tomorrow. She has a "date." Who has a date on Tuesday? Anyway, I have class so I won't even get out until 7:30pm. I want TIMES for when I'm to be there and when SHE PLANS ON COMING BACK. Is that too much to ask? I used to babysit, so I know what usually happens. But she takes advantage of ME becuase 1) she doesn't pay me 2) because I'm family. So telling me she's going to be back at midnight and not showing up until 5 or 6 am is very disrespectful. WOuld she do that with a regular babysitter? WHo knows, maybe, my sister has seemed to have gone downhill since she called off her wedding to a great guy back in her early 20's. But that's beside the point.
So, I'm wondering what "babysitting protocol" there is out there nowadays. Luckily she gave me 24 hours notice. Usually she calls me the same day. I really don't care WHAT she does and WHO she does it with, but when I"m taken advantage of because I'm family, that doesn't go over with me. My time is just as important. Granted I know she thinks she has no life (which sometimes makes me think she regrets having her daughter) and doesn't go out often, but it's like a binge. Like she thinks that OMG I"M FREE I better go for it. That is also irresponsible. She's lucky I didn't call Protective Services. On the other hand, I do love spending time with my niece. Am I being selfish? Probably. I'm fucking human. I'm fucking single. I really need to utilize that BTW.
So I asked her what times she will be out. No answer yet. I shall see.
Hmm. Once I am finished with my errands, I wonder if I should watch the first season of Grey's Anatomy or Desert Heat with Jean-Claude Van Damme........
