Title: Interesting Coincidences
Description: Adventures in Babysitting

So, Saturday morning, I was babysitting a couple kids up the road while their parents were...somewhere with the church, I think. Anyway, we were hanging out downstairs, because upstairs was unbearably hot, and talking. The older of the two, the girl, turned 11 on Saturday. She and I have a few things in common, she loves to read, and write, and she likes fantasy. I was building with Legos with her 6 year old brother, and she said "You know what stinks? When you're co-owner of a website and your parents won't let you on the internet." I looked at her, and said "Yes, I know exactly how that feels...the co-owner of my website hasn't been on the internet all summer." And we started talking, and I asked her what kind of site it was, and it's RPG. Her first love is horses, so the site is based on a summer camp thing, completely different from here, but still. We started talking about how our sites were run, and the best kinds of forums to use, and she said her main homepage was hosted by freewebs.com. I didn't know that anyone I knew around here actually knew what freewebs is, other than Zek and I, and a friend we told about it once. :P
It was, most definately, one of the most interesting things that's happened to me at their house. :P I told her when she gets older she has to read Wheel of Time, and I'd give her the link here, she seemed excited. :P Of course, all the while, her little brother is playing, and has no idea what we're talking about...I kinda feel bad for him...:look

Oh my goodness, the memories! When I was 11, not only was I an RPG fanatic, but I loved to get on those little horse and wolf forums. :lol: Kinda silly now that I think about it. And Mother, I started reading WoT a few weeks after I turned 11, and that's how I got out of animal RPs. It took me awhile to find out that there were actually WoT RPs out there (Almost four years), but one day I got the random idea to google search "WoT RP" and was brought to TarValon.net, and from there tons of sites from their links.. Aah, I just love Google, it's a part of my daily life. >Pets Google fondly<
Sapphira Calren - August 26, 2005 07:37 PM (GMT)
Yep, that's what I'm here for Marian. :look
I never did horse RPs...probably mainly because I know less than nothing about horses. :P I only started RPing *counts backwards* a little more than a year and a half ago, when I joined Glimmers in December '04. *shrug*
Ah yes, Google, how could someone not love it?

If you think thats bad, you should see what's underneath. B)
Marian Skylas - August 27, 2005 01:38 AM (GMT)
Wow, when did I start reading WoT... Let's see... I think I was 12... :look
Naishee Telisia - August 27, 2005 03:26 AM (GMT)
How old are you now, Marian Sedai, if you don't mind me asking?
And Asha'man Rialt... :lol: :P
Also, is it just me or are some people's images not working, aswell as the banner?
Laridian Maeronen - August 27, 2005 05:41 AM (GMT)

hmm now to go save the ducklings :ph43r:
Mirazhe Tomai - August 29, 2005 07:30 PM (GMT)
Yes, we must save the ducklings!
Sareth Numero - August 29, 2005 07:33 PM (GMT)
Ok, you set the explosives around the grate, after i remove the mother and sibling. Then you blow it, ill grapple down with a basket to put them in as you restrain the mother and sibling. Crewman #3 will hoist me up and they will be saved!
That should work ..... right?
Mirazhe Tomai - August 29, 2005 07:35 PM (GMT)
Of course it will. :P
*stacks a pile of TNT by the grate* Ready? :ph43r:
Sareth Numero - August 29, 2005 07:36 PM (GMT)
YES! :ph43r: wait, let me tie the grate to a pole so it doesnt fall on the ducklings!.
*Ties it*
ok! Hit it!
*Restrains mother and sibling*
