After taking care of some urgent grocery shopping, I stayed up a couple hours past my usual bedtime, depriving myself of much needed sleep so that I could ice my cake and get ALL my supplies together for class today. Packed the cake and supplies into the car this morning before heading off to work so I could go straight to class from work.
Only to find out....no class today; delayed because of the weather this past week. Good thing I called.
Dude...1st time I had everything for class ready the night before and boom* no class...rarrr.
Ended up hanging out with a work colleague instead. Cake's goin' in the freezer til Sunday.
I am NOT making another one; it'd be the third cake in about a week, and I don't know what to do with the two I already have. Anybody wanna buy a cake? haha..just kidding. The first two cakes for my intermediate class are already spoken for, which only leaves the icebox bound one for the basic class (make-up) on monday and that's as far ahead as I can plan cake-wise until some other things in my life are better sorted.
Speaking of which...the bulk of my mass amassment of possessions has been duly combined and sorted in a much more manageable way. Naturally I had help in this since my face would have exploded otherwise. Now the purge begins.
In other news...social skills....yeah. Lots of old habits to unlearn. When you are interested in someone and they are flirting with you, common sense dictates that you respond in a positive and friendly manner.....
as opposed to bludgeoning them over the head with a chunk of ice pried off your car...it's only reasonable and surely produces much more satisfactory results....
So why do I feel like a total moron whenever I react positively? Because I have -273.15 Celsius with the practice.
Working on that though.
