As of right now I am babysitting a six year old named Xander. I'm getting paid for this, of course. I would do it anyway, even for free, but only because it's my best friend Drucillas younger brother. However, I do need the money, so I'm forced to take it. He's a pretty chill kid, so I don't mind. Right now he's eating mini muffins and painting me pictures of myself and my father (even though he's never even met him before).
I am also going to be watching my friend Alisons (who also lives with her cousin Whitney and friend Sarah) apartment starting Monday and ending Thursday while they're in Florida. They're paying me 150$, which is pretty sweet. They have three animals I have to take care of, which is no big deal because two of them (a dog and a cat) are fairly old and pretty calm. The other, however, a four month old tea cup chihuahua is a bit of a spazz. The only part I'm dreading is all of the time I'm going to have to spend standing in the cold with those two dogs on leashes while they pee or poop or both at their own leisure. But hey, it's 150$, I can't complain.
I got a fortune the other day when I got chinese in between my classes that informed me I would be coming into a financial upturn. Spot on fortune cookie, spot on indeed.
