I took Busy Girl to a frined's house to spend the night. Her friend is an only child. I walked into their house and noticed that the parents had time to sit down in their unstained den and watch things on TV that weren't Disney or the Cartoon Network. They could carry on a conversation without interruption. Did you hear that?! Complete, adult sentences! Their weekend chores were finished. What is this "finished" and "free time" these natives spoke of? They seemed very happy, but, it sounds very boring to me. However, I'd be willing to try it out for a weekend, you know, just to make sure it's not for me.

By the way, could you use an additional $1,000 every month? Not me, I have all the money I need (/sarcasm), but, you might be intersted in the Mastercard Monthly Bonus Sweepstakes. Between now and May 31st, Mastercard debit holders in the United States have a chance to win $1,000 monthly over 10 years. All you have to do is use your Mastercard debit card for the daily things you do like going to the drycleaner, post office, gas station, grocery store or on whatever other errands you run. Each purchase you make during this time is an automatic entry to win, so, go check it out.
