Well, quite a lot of fuss. If I didn't know better, I'd think we were dangerous.

Doesn't stop me from cupcakes, though

Well, cupcakes are Another Thing Entirely.

That being said, while pregnant, I was on a too high consumption of cupcakes diet. I mean, seriously? No one needs multiple cupcakes a week. Now I'm on a cupcake free diet, and maybe in June, I'll move back to a cupcake light diet.

But LA does not make the cupcake cutback easy given near the hospital is Dots Cupcakes and there is Violet Cakes not far away. Not to mention my old standbys Yummy Cupcakes and Leda's. I haven't even ventured out to try other cupcakes on the other side of the hill.

Speaking as a pregnant woman, this is quite simply crazy talk. Cupcakes are delicious.

I meant post-Pregnancy, Jessica. As a post preggo, I don't need multiple cupcakes a week.

Also, I forgot to mention the divine cupcakes at Auntie Em's which is sort of in my neighborhood. And not just cupcakey, but they have cookies bigger than your head.

Oh. Well...yeah, probably not.

I'm not looking forward to adjusting to a post-preggers diet again. My metabolism really likes being pregnant.

What is even happening?

Well, speaking as a 7 years and one week post preggo, I do. I don't have them, but I do need them, and I'm less effective because of my serious cupcake deficit. It's only the cookies that are keeping me going.

I don't think I've had a cupcake since...um. I don't know.

This day is making me crazy. Who thinks it is a good plan to have an all-hands on the first of the month? Is DUMB.

Breastfeeding is a really good alternative to pregnancy. Okay, granted, I have yet to lose the last 5-10 pounds, but it did help the weight come off fast.

Not even for emotional well-being, in order to keep (a purely hypothetical) someone from doing something like explaining to management why the team seems to be suffering from low morale?

I really want a cupcake. Or ice cream. I'm not picky.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

I can't really feign surprise if I already SQUEEEEEEEEE'ed all over your LJ, can I?

Anyway, no better time for a public SQUEEEEEEEEEEE!

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Ah, I wondered if I had missed an announcement!
