Ragnafrost and the universe's wrath


It's been ten days. I didn't think I had gone so many without writing anything. It's amazing how much time passes without one realizing it. I've been busy losing my mind. I have yet to find a job, I'm not sure how sending out a billion applications can come back with nothing but such is life. So no job means no money and this means that Baby Grrs birthday was almost missed.

We had her birthday on Saturday. I wasn't sure how I was going to pull it off. In the end I had 25 dollars to make the entirety of her party, gifts, decorations and food included. I made her cake.


This cake wanted to kill me or at least try to. All the frostings and inner portions turned out fine but the cake itself was just ridiculous. I tried finding a recipe that I thought would be good but unfortunately it came out like brownies, very crumbly brownies. Now I like a good brownie now and then and this recipe would have made a very good one but brownies though cake-like in concistancy are not in fact cake. The texture is very different. Not to mention it wouldn't have held up to all the decorations that were supposed to be on it, so I just put on my big girl panties and sucked it up and went and bought a cake box mix since I was already frustrated with the three things that hadn't turned out that day. oh well

It was a good time though, we had fun and laughed and the kids played well together. 11 people isn't bad for a child's birthday party.

One problem I see is that I haven't been able to find my wallet since Friday though. Seriously have never lost my wallet before. Miss placed it, had the kids take it, but never lost it. It's distressing and annoying. I've looked everywhere I can think it might be, I even called to all the stores and two different city police offices. Such is life.

Stressing seems to be all I do lately. Like the world is just against me in every way. I must have done something or been someone terrible in a past life... like sell out my friend for 30 pieces of silver.
