Granny: I'm babysitting for my daughter's kids next Thursday.
Friend: What? You just sat for them last Thursday!
Granny: No, no, -- I couldn't make it that time.
Friend: But still...
Granny: Well, she has a lot of doctors' appointments lately. Anyway, I just take them out for lunch and give them French fries.
