Wow! An update!
It's been a long time, hasn't it? Yeah. Sorry about that.
I've been rather sick, and singularly unmotivated to blog. Sarah's grandmother has encephalitis, which has me worried, obviously. And neither of us is going to be able to make the trek to see the other anytime soon, so we're both pretty miserable about that.
On a positive note, I will be getting more hours at work, because Mr. Oblivious (our manager trainee) will be leaving us a week from this Sunday. That means I will be the sole cake-decorator once again. It also means there will only be three managers again (one general, two assistants), so there will be more hours for everyone. Perhaps more than I will actually want. I may be working some 11-8's and some split-shifts. Those both suck, because they eat up your whole day. And the splits really suck, because they keep you from getting any sleep. But I need the money, so I'm not going to protest too much.
Also, I watched Super Size Me the other day, and it inspired me to eat a little healthier. I'm trying to limit myself to one soda/sugary drink per day and dessert three times a week. I'm also trying to eat DQ less and Subway more. I find that it's tolerably affordable if I get a footlong and make two meals of it. Drinking water most of the time isn't as hard as I thought it would be.
I'm planning on going to see Brokeback Mountain today. I may also have to go in to make some cakes and do the airbrushing for the two Decoset cakes I have due on Saturday, because I know I won't possibly be able to do ALL of that on Friday night. That kind of sucks, because I was supposed to be off today, and I don't have another day off until next Sunday, but I could definitely use the hours, so I won't say no. How could I? It's not like there's anyone else who can do it.
Okay, I need to go and find out what time Brokeback Mountain is playing today. Here ends the first update in over a week (sorry!).
