Not empty

This week my nest is not empty. We are babysitting 11-year old Scott while his parents are away raising money.* I now remember how I don't like driving kids to school and back, but I do like having someone around to cook for. I noticing that Scott gets his homework done by "Asking Jeeves." Scott also informed us of his political views, a la Shawn Hannity. (Isn't he too young for that?)

*Other names for this process:

- raising support
- doing deputation
- partnership development
- pious pillaging of prosperous patrons
- begging
