(Dim) ...I didn't know cake had balls...
Trudy beat me to it, actually. The above is my standard response to offers of rum balls, bourbon balls, etc. Warning: does not work for meatballs.
As someone who used to eat canned frosting with a spoon, I'm surprised to say cake balls don't sound all that appealing. I'm sort of aghast at myself.
I want a cake ball! TJs has these weird pancake balls that claim to be Swedish. They are kinda tasty, light and lemony. But I have no idea how you'd make them in a pan.
That was a staple in my house growing up, except that we called them Danish pancakes. I have a pan, and a recipe, but I never use them.
In not so onerous task news, I called the Surgicenter, told the nice woman who answered what account I was calling about, she took a moment to look at it, came back and said basically, "oh yeah, that's wrong. We've been having trouble with Blue Shield. Give me a while, and I can fix it for you."
Give me a while, and I can fix it for you.
Yes!!
Yay, nice woman!
I had coffee, which was, as predicted, kind of a mistake. I really need to buy some decaf pods.
Thanks Ginger.
Okay, class has been taught, I think it went well. Now I have to do some work and then I have a 3 pm meeting. And then--ice skating!
Ice skating sounds awesome! After going to the ENT, I worked for a bit, then took a half hour nap before going to the hairdresser--I guess I still need more sleep than usual, I would've kept sleeping if I didn't have an appointment! Now I m contemplating how much work I want/am willing to do in the next six hours or so...
msbelle-- if you haven't already, I urge to sign up for Linked in and apply for jobs through them. We advertised in several outlets and all our best candidates came from the ad we placed with them. It also helps because when you apply, your whole profile comes up, and you can have references, etc, up there already.
God damned fucking people, show up for my meeting already. We have half an hour, and the CIO put me on mute.
HA! I got the one thing I was waiting for, so sent off the thing I've been trying to get done for literally months! In addition to a Big Draft, which I was a little worried about the lack of feedback I've gotten so far, but my coworker assured me that if it was bad, I would have heard already. So that's good. Now I just need to wait out the next 45 minutes.
