Kitty and Aurelie and Wall-E, Oh My!

What I did today:

[o] slept in
[o] had a breakfast consisting of a cupcake and a banana
[o] went with Ryan to pick up Kitty
[o] went as a trio to the bank, FedEx, Target, and Starbucks
[o] hung out with Kitty and Ryan, then Kitty and Ryan and BJ and Sameh, then Kitty and Ryan and BJ and Sameh and Alex, then Kitty and Ryan and BJ and Sameh and Alex and Aurelie, then Aurelie
[o] watched Wall-E with Aurelie, who had never seen it before
[o] editing some trying-to-be-fancy pictures for over here

Tomorrow is back to work. Boo. Last week's mini-vacation completely spoiled me, now I want to replace my 5 day work/2 day home week with 3 day work/4 day home, or even 4 day work/3 day home. If we could afford it, I completely would.

All the cupcakes I made got eaten up. Then general consensus (except for Kitty, who is a sweetheart) is that the were a bit plain. I followed the recipe a tad too exactly, and next time I plan on putting in way more vanilla.

One of the items I got today at the store was cupcake liners. I eyed the maple extract and orange extract for a very long time, and may have given in if they weren't $5 or $4 a bottle, respectively. My plans for tomorrow before work are to bake something else while I wash my work clothes. I've become an addict! :D

I didn't do laundry today, or write, or take pictures, or stitch. I did get lots of errands done, and I kinda cooked (made mac n cheese for visitors), and I was social and spent a lot of time laughing with people I find awesome. Good enough! :D

I do wish I'd been able to take Dad's call, but never fear, Dad! You gave me major food for thought. In fact, I plan on writing it over in my journal just now, before bed. I'll get back to you. :)

Off I go, to think and sleep...

  1. A tip, in case you weren't aware. Always use the real Vanilla extract. The artificial stuff degrades when cooked and isn't as strong. Plus, you know, it's artificial.
