Sooo, a few things:
Firstly: well, as everyone knows, it's the 5th anniversary of "September 11th," a date that has become as much a part of 'our' American culture as the "Fourth of July." There's been a lot of random tribute style stuff all over TV, radio, and the internet... but I think that the most important thing is the national government's obvious oversight... Why isn't today a national holiday? I mean, seriously, there's an election coming up, war obviously isn't making 'the people' happy with Dubya, so why not try peace, instead? Declare 9/11 a national holiday dedicated to throwing a huge party. Think of it as the wake for our personal freedoms. ::shrugs::
Secondly: my favourite episode of the West Wing was on tonight. Score.
Thirdly: I made an ugly-ass cake that people at Andi's work went totally bananas over.... just wait til they see what an actual DECORATOR can do! lawl
And, lastly: I finally got over my shit and called Mike about maybe doing Placebo for CON next year. Sadly, I got Geoff's number from him, but forgot to ask if I could use his pill capper... Oh, well, I'll just call him back over the weekend.
And, another thing: nothing personal, but pregnant women shouldn't work in bakeries! Catie was SOO sick on Sunday because she walked into the bakery when Miyan was baking spice cake. I guess she ralphed within 5 minutes, so none of the cakes that he and I baked for the weddings this week were sandwiched. Read as: I got to spend all fscking day today sandwiching all the cakes, both tiered and sheet, for 1000-5000 and 9000's. Then, I was supposed to make the boards for the tiers, except that Mel came in and decided to do my job, so I'm standing around for the last hour or so of my shift going, "I'm not even supposed to be here" this late.... Whatever, at least it all got done.
I have a cakey rant brewing in my skull, but it will probably have to wait...
Love you guys!
