NO MORE CUPCAKES!

There are times in our lives where we wish certain things would just never happen. Things like breaking a heel and not having a spare pair of shoes, failing a test even though you spent all night studying, or (to the extreme) losing a loved one too early in life. Well, today the most unthinkable thing happened. Today is one of my resident's birthday (I'm an RA) and after my internship, I decided to stop by Crumbs Bakeshop to pick up a chocolate cupcake with chocolate icing (she loves chocolate) for her. But to my horror, Crumbs Bakeshop was OUT OF CUPCAKES! NO. I'M NOT KIDDING!

Here's what happened: With two hours to closing, I arrived at Crumbs Bakeshop around 6pm. I was excited that I would get to have one of their delicious and well-priced cupcakes. But when I skipped up to the door, an 8x11 paper sign smacked me in the face. It read, "Sorry no more cupcakes today!" My mind went blank and my jaw dropped. I thought, "What?!" I walked in and asked the person up front, "Are you serious? Is there really no more cupcakes?!" She said, "Yeah, sorry." I glared over at the cupcake display fridge and she was right. THERE WERE NO MORE CUPCAKES! I wasn't the only one in disbelief. Everyone that walked in after me had THE SAME EXACT reaction--jaw dropped and everything. So since I didn't want to miss my train back, I decided to forget about the cupcakes and go back another time.

I'm still in shock. Anything unbelievable happen to you recently?

    That is so disappointing! There's nothing worse than really having your mind set on something and then it just doesn't happen. That was my day today. I was driving to my ballet class and forgot that class was canceled. . . I tried to go to another dance studio and couldn't find it. Tried to go shopping, couldn't find parking. Eventually I drove home, completely and utterly defeated.

    I have acquired ten scars on my two legs within a month by accident (bumping into cabinets, sharp wires, etc). TIME TO WEAR PANTS!
