If You Give a Girl a Babysitting Job

. . . modeled from "If You Give a Mouse a Cookie" by Lauren Numeroff.

If you give a girl a babysitting job she is going to be excited.

If the girl is excited she is going to assume the job will go well.

If she arrives assuming the job will go well the children will sense that she is a newbie to this business.

If the kids sense that she is a newbie to this business they will misbehave.

If the kids misbehave, the parents will call to say "we're having so much fun, we'll just be a few hours late".

If the parents are a few hours late, the girl will have to put the kids to bed.

If the girl tries to put the kids to bed, she will end up realizing that the Poky Little Puppy should die.

If she realizes the Poky Little Puppy should die she will start singing lullabies.

If she starts singing the songs chosen will be questionable as to their appropriateness for children

If the girl sings questionable songs long enough the children will eventually fall asleep

If the children ever fall asleep the girl will sneak out of their room like a cat before collapsing onto their couch and promising herself she will never accept a babysitting job again.

If the girl promises herself she will never accept a babysitting job again the family will arrive home and say "so we have some more dates we need to know if you're interested in".
