Bottomless Pit

Today my stomach was a bottomless pit.
I had as much protein as I could today (given the time I had to prepare and eat my meals), and I just could not stay full.
It was pretty much every 2 hours that my stomach was rumbling.
That's just ridiculous.
Let's hope tomorrow I can at least go 3 hours without eating.
Ugh.

Work is slowly but surely returning back to normal.
Well, at least as normal as it can be.
Still no cupcakes, but my coworker is back from her honeymoon, so I can once again quiz her for answers to my tiered cake questions.
I told her today, and I hope it didn't creep her out, that I had Kim withdrawals.
You see, I work with her 32 hours/week, and we stand next to each other all day, so we naturally talk about everything.
Some guys at work have a bromance, but we have a girlmance.
Yes, I just made that up- deal with it.
But yes, she is back, and so is my boss (for another few weeks).
If we could get cupcakes in, life would be wonderful.
Oh to dream....

Tap dance was fun tonight.
We added on more to our dance.
Now we turn multiple times, and have more complex steps.
And the song is damn fast, so between turns and taps I get super confused.
We know half of the dance, so by the time we learn all the steps, we will have 3 months to perfect it.
I think we will need all the help we can get.
It's ridiculously fun, but I just don't have the dance mind set- aka, I have a hard time multitasking.

I bought more fondant crap tools today.
$50 later, and halfway home, I realized I forgot one part- damnit.
Tomorrow before class I need to try and buy the board.
I have one more week to perfect base frosting a cake using fondant.
Then I have to make a tiered cake for a baby shower next weekend.
Although as of right now I haven't heard back if they want to pay me that much to make it.
Fondant and tiered cakes are damn expensive.
Since I'm still learning I'm not even charging much of anything for labor.
I should, but if I want to make a portfolio and to keep doing it, I'll do what I have to.
My sanity just might die with the cakes.
Only two other requested fondant tiered cakes to make for people after this one... eek.
What a life I live- make cakes at work, and then make cakes at home.
Lame.

Whelp, I'm going to go to bed.
I'm ridiculously exhausted, and I need to try and actually get up tomorrow morning.
No more snoozing for 45 minutes.
I often wonder if I will ever become a morning person- part of me really hopes I don't!
Time to go snuggle with my stuffed llama.
